Shopping For Fabric Today

 I was ready for Debbie to come pick me up. She wanted me to go with her to Gee Gee's Quilt shop in Yelm. 

She arrived at 10 am and we headed out. Stopped to get a tea/coffee and then off to Yelm. We arrived with the parking lot full. That surprised me. Debbie was looking for fabrics that would work in her memory quilt. She has a ton of photos and is making it for her daughter. I think it's good therapy for her to do this. We got a lot of different fabrics for it. She just needs to figure out the sizes, since the photos were sized a little off. 

I looked (sort of) for panels. I found one and bought 4 of them. Then Debbie pointed out the fabric that goes with the 250 years of the signing of the declaration. It works with the panels we have for QOV. I saw one on Etsy and was surprised a QOV quilt could be sold on Etsy, but when I went looking for it today, it was gone. The fabrics I got will work great with the panels. 

I am still waiting for the panels to come in, but I will be paying attention to where we can get the fabric if we need it. 

We stopped at the grange to see if the fabric was selling. I did notice about half the fabric was gone, so that's a good thing. I need to check with Colleen to see if it went as well as I hope it did. I won't see her till later this week. 

Came home and I played on the tablet after supper. I had to work on some QOV stuff and balance our "checkbook" to be sure the amount is right. I also posted on Facebook the last two presentations. Once I had that done, we had supper and then I played. 

We watched TV. I think this time, even though I wasn't stitching or sewing, I can but was working on fabrics to do some quilting - that should say I was Happy Quilting/Happy Stitching!
