| What's in the bag? |
Had to make a trip to my LQS in Manhattan to collect supplies for 2 courses that I've got coming up over the next week and also for more Transparency Quilt fabric - note my use of 'had to' like it's a hardship!
Here's my bag of goodies - bought so much I had a brown paper carrier today instead of the smaller plastic bag and fortunately I had husband, S, with me to carry it all.
My shopping list:
2 yards Michael Miller Hone-D and 1 yard Kona - Stone for Transparency Quilt
Heirloom Machine Quilting Book by Harriet Hargrave Spiral-bound for Free Motion class (love, love, love, spiral-bound books, they're so much easier to work with that a standard paperback)
Quilter's Dream Request batting - to fit 2 quilts 55 x 55 & 50 x 30
1 yard muslin for Free Motion class
Basting safety pins - size 1 (you can't have too many basting pins, ever!!!)
2 yards main fabric (b&w on pattern) & 2 3/4 yards backing fabric for Sparkle Plenty Quilt
2 x 5" charm packs or 1.5 yards accent fabric for Sparkle Plenty Quilt
And here's photos of the best bits - the fabric
