Then on Friday, I received a squishy packet and a box. The squishy packet was from my unofficial-sister (LOL!) who lives in PA. I mad a mug rug earlier this month and commented that if I had more of the fabrics I used (they were scraps), I would love to make a table runner with them. No surprise, she quickly emailed and said "I have some of that green on tan fabric!" and so it arrived on Friday.
The box was from a friend in IL who is an amazing quilter and has influenced me in more ways than she knows. I recently sent her some TOT Creams and Tans for a project and she reciprocated by sending me some much needed browns and yellows and even a bit of the same green on tan my sister-friend sent.
Here is the green on tan fabric... it is, to me, one of those fabrics that look better when used than just by itself:
And here are the browns and yellows...
I really love that back yellow with the sort of folksy floral print. Love it!
I worked on my mom's GFG last night and will work on it more as the weekend continues. I am also putting together a pieced border for the graduation quilt. It is looking good. Lots of quilt action happening here!
Oh yes... and just when I think I am caught up on Baby quilts, 3 more pregnant mommas pop up! LOL! I have a little boy quilt to make, a girlie girl and one that doesn't know yet. The earliest due date is late August, so PTL I have a bit of time. But the creative process is already churning in my mind. I love baby quilts!
