We are back to civilization...the Bungalow is unpacked, most of the laundry is done, the accumulated dirt has been scrubbed away and the sewing bug has set in. I did do a bit of handwork while I was away, stitching 2 of the dresdans to their backgrounds and managed to whip up a few hexies for GFG while sitting by the fire.But yesterday, while perusing for the makings for my oldest's Homecoming corsage
& boutonniere at Craft Warehouse, I wandered over to the fabric section to discover that they were having a truckload sale!! All sorts of wonderfulness in the form of fabric was piled high and calling my name...I mean, who could resist Moda @ $3.99/yd???
I did manage to escape w/ only 2 yards, but it was just enough to get me started on those wonky log cabins I have been dying to make! (and I must say that I made some good progress after I constructed the corsage & bout. in the meanwhile the kids were at the football game and my DH was cleaning the kitchen...he is SOOOO good to me!!)
But now, I have a date w/my DH for a sub & a beverage at the local pizza spot, so I must bid you adieu and toddle off to hop in the shower and make the attempt to beautify myself. On tonight's agenda: get the kids off to dinner & the dance, take MANY pictures, make dinner (nothing in mind there just yet, but it will come to me), relax w/a nice glass of pinot, perhaps a movie and....MORE SEWING!!!
TTFN...and Happy Saturday!

Your log cabins are so pretty, I know how fun they are to do. You were very controlled in your spending with the modas at that price. Enjoy your sewing time.
ReplyDeleteAh, likewise. There's nothing better than a day of sewing, followed by a nice meal (my DH is a superb cook) with wine, and later, a movie. We should double-date sometime!
ReplyDeleteYour wonky log cabins are looking great!
ReplyDeleteNo one can pass up Moda for $3.99 a yard. Your fabrics are beautiful on your log cabin blocks.
