I felt so well yesterday, I even went to quilting for a little bit!
I didn't bring sewing with me but I did bring scraps
and the Accuquilt cutter to get ready to make a quilt top.
Our group is making a bunch of quilts to donate to the county police to be used
specifically for when they get a call to a domestic violence situation.
Since that is something that has affected my family, of course , I wanted to participate!
While digging through the stash to find some children's fabrics, I found this very old fabric.
It is only 32" wide and a much looser weave than we would find today!
Here is one that is many decades newer but still
many decades old! Monkeys have always been good for children's fabrics, I guess!
This one is decades old; see the children at play?
While this one is a new fabric printed to look old!
It was fun to dig through my own little department store!
Your stash is amazing!!! Since Dad passed all I have are Connecting Threads collections. He was the fabric shopper in the family. I really miss that.
ReplyDelete"My own little department store" - LOL - love that. Fun fabrics too. Glad you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteFun project to do — kid-geared quilts are always fun to plan.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear you’re feeling better and well enough to venture out. The fabrics are fun.
ReplyDeleteThe one with the children playing with balls reminds me of my old readers from first grade --- Tip and Mitten.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling better.
I was rooting around for backing fabric and resisted some older, but still new, purchases. With it being in drawers, you forget what you have!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful cause. Love all the fabrics
ReplyDeleteSuch fun, fun fabrics. I'm glad you're feeling better.
