I haven’t busted any stash this week. I must confess that last Sunday, after I posted my weekly report, I ordered three BOLTS of fabric. Hey, it was on sale! $2.50 a yard for two of them, $2.75 for one. One is a beautiful Hoffman print, one is Robyn Randolph, and I don’t remember what the other was. I ordered them mostly for quilt backings. I haven’t rec’d my order yet, but when I do, I will post a pic. I ordered them from http://www.fabric4less.com/, after receiving not one, but two emails tempting me with their big sale.
I did my weigh-in this morning. Last week I was 145, and today I was 144. I really don’t know how that happened, as I have yet to get back to exercising. Maybe just because I’ve been so darn busy.
I have made lots more progress on the quilt I’m quilting. I leave you today with some more pics of it.

I’m a simple woman…at least that what my DH (Dear Husband) used to say about me…I was a wife, I am now a widow, mother, step-mother & step-grandmother, quilter, and have a full time job in criminal justice. I lost my DH on May 22nd, 2011. I live in a small town in Texas. I love piecing quilts, I love quilting quilts. I have a serious addiction to fabric. I’ve been quilting since 1998, and purchased my first longarm, a Gammill Premier, in 2004. I upgraded to an A-1 Elite, named Corky, in March, 2007. I am in the process of rebuilding my life after losing my spouse.

Do you use a ruler to get those perfectly spaced spirals in the blue sashing and border? It looks great!
I replied to Vicki privately, but for anyone else that might want to know….I just drew out the curlicues with a chalk pencil first, then stitched away. Now I’m thinking I could’ve used a wavy ruler to mark the spine…I might have to try that next time!

I love the way your leaves look, Randi. I think I need to give those a try. Yup, with all that I do, I haven’t tried “leafing it”. 😉 Beautiful work, as always!
Leaves are lots of fun, Lynn!
