And, I might have found a couple clearance fabrics that needed to come home with me.... no worries, though, because three of them are destined to be part of my next purse.
The thing I'm most excited about is that I got three new quilting magazines- I love looking through them for inspiration! They are the three I would love a subscription to (Hey, Husband, still want a Valentine's gift idea?) since I buy these three every month.
And the last things I got from JoAnn are three plastic bins to start sorting scraps even more. Let's hope this helps!
All of this was packed into a single bag that USED to be big enough. Not anymore... so hopefully, having the scraps semi-sorted like this will make it easier to make scrappy blocks. Call me out on it if you don't see some scrappy goodness within a few weeks... please? Thanks!
Tonight's cooking adventure: I separated and de-tipped raw chicken wings. I'm one step closer to being less squeamish, and on the way to sticky chicken wings for dinner!
Oh yeah- we had an earthquake this morning.... about 20 miles from where we live. Scared the bejeebers out of me until I figured out what it was. I wish I could blame it for the mess in my sewing room.... but that's been there for days now, and Tim has seen it at its worst.... haha. I did conclude I could never live in Cali- I could never get used to the earth shaking like that!
Was that the 3.8 in Indiana that we heard about on tonight's news?
ReplyDeleteI agree that can be scary, especially when you are in a location where you don't expect an eq.

Even when I lived in the SF Bay area, I often thought an earthquake was something else ... I remember once thinking that a truck must have crashed into the building because it was such a sharp jolt. When my bed started rocking and rolling, I realized it wasn't a truck ... it was mother earth ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love your new scrap bins!
