My goal for this year was not to buy any fabric - to make a quilt a month all from stash. I broke down and bought some WOW and yellow for the Dresden plate as I was out of those, I was happy that I only bought what I needed and no more. Actually, I have enough left over to add to another project and will definately use them this year. I feel only a little guilty for my purchase, but I bought them with a project in mind and they have helped me keep moving on with my goal so I can justify the purchase.
But today... well, I just couldn't help myself.
There was no project in mind but the price was too good to pass up!!
It was a nice day today so I decided to stop off at the first garage sale of the year. I had never been in that neighborhood before and it was a very pretty drive so even if I didn't find anything, the view was worth it. The seller had the usual eclectic collection of items, and a box labeled 50 cents each. It had a selection of needlecrafts, including several felt snowman kits that wrap around a 2 liter bottle. Ok. for 50 cents, I bought all three - such a bargin! Then, at the bottom of the box I found.... this wonderful baggie of goodies!!
It was a Moda 2008 Fat Quarter Club package (still in it's original wrapping) from the Fat Quarter Shop!!! 12 Moda Fat Quarters, brand new, all for 50 cents!! Score!! I can't believe I almost missed it!
Do I feel guilty for buying it? No way! This was too good to pass up.
Now to find the right pattern to make with it. Any ideas??
