iPhone-o-Gram! Fat Quarter Windfall!

The post man just made a drop on my doorstep – a box addressed to me!

I haven't ordered anything from Amazon lately, so I was curious as to what was in the box – I tore it open right away!

Oh goodness – it's a whole collection of very fun fat quarters for me to play with!

The note inside is from Marti –

She was in my mystery quilt class at fabric fanatics last New Year's and just finished that quilt as a wall hanging –and sent   along a batch of fat quarters – just because :-)

Just because is a very good reason!

Thank you Marti – this really brought a smile to my face today, and I can't wait to play with them :-)

There is more desk work to get done, however – but the weekend is almost upon us, and I am hoping for lots of sewing time!

Love from the basement
Bonnie

  1. I just learned how to make pillowcases using that 'rolling method' and those would be so cute for charity ones. I have made 5 this week alone!

    I am sure you already have a fun plan for them - enjoy your surprise.

  6. Love surprises. Know you will make a special quilt with all the cute prints. Have a great week-end. Hope you get to go the Quilt Villa and relax with your hubby. You are due for some time just having fun and not being on a schedule.

  8. Have fun with all those Theme prints. Can't wait to see what you make with them all. I figured the Aito correct was working overtime when I first read this post. I knew what you meant anyway. Picture told it all!

    Had a chance to get acquainted with Fabric Fanatics today at a Shop Hop organized here in the town where I live. B-U-tiful batiks. I name-dropped and asked for directions to their shop since I am often visiting family in their area. Maybe I can get there for real this year at New Years. Been a fan forever. Stephani in N.

  11. It is almost as good as a box of chocolates, The plus is that the fat quarters are calorie free! Enjoy, you deserve it.
