Quilt Diva Julie asked if I would like some Christmas fabrics she was moving out of her studio. She had no way of knowing I, only the day previous, talked with DH about making a Christmas quilt since I haven’t ever made one for us. How serendipitous was that?!?!
Imagine my utter surprise and excitement when a very, very heavy box arrived yesterday and this is what I saw on top.
Not exactly what I’d call Christmas fabric but gold so it could be in a Christmas quilt, right? I unpacked the box to find…..
The sewing machine panels are fun and neutrals are always useful. The black holly print has enough for a Christmas quilt back! And, AND, all the fabrics have been washed….. another gift because I wash all my fabrics before they hit the shelves.
Thank you, Julie 💕. Ideas are percolating and the squirrels are running rampant.
‘Tis the Thanksgiving season, truly, Cherie
Wow! Such a beautiful gift. Amazing how it all worked out that way. Julie ROCKS!!! Can't wait to see what you create.
ReplyDeleteLucky you - Julie is truly generous! And how fortuitous that there's Christmas fabrics for you, especially backing.
ReplyDeleteLOL - the squirrels running rampant … hope they come up with some good ideas!
ReplyDeleteWow! That was a generous gift, but then again, I think most quilters are very generous and appreciative when we share our stashes!
