My weekend so far....

We had some great snow this morning.
It was just pretty and a great day to sew.
I picked up the new Denyse Schmidt fabrics at Joann's last Saturday.
I also grabbed a coupld of spools of thread that coordinate.
I tend to get caught without a coordinate for quilting or sewing the binding.


 
This line is Aunt Edna and the quality is great.
The price is killer though $12.99 regular price.
I paid $9.09 a yard on sale.
Still a little steep for a JoAnn fabric IMO.
I have already pieced the quilt and it's off to my quilter tomorrow.
I will show a picture as soon as I can....

    Yeah, major sticker shock. I couldn't believe the price when I saw the bolts at Joann's last weekend. The prints are lovely, though.

    Purchased, pieced and on the way to the quilted all within a week. I'm impressed. I haven't seen the new line yet but I am headed to Joanns tomorrow for some black home dec fabric.

    Joann's prices can be a bit on the high side.

    Your fabric choices arae wonderful and it is wonderful that you already have a top ready for the quilter.

    Can't wait to see the pics!

    ya, that was sticker shock to me when I saw the price on Aunt Edna too :( I passed, but will probably pick up little by little with a 40-50% coupon. I like it much better than the last batch that came out....

    pretty fabric color combination

    and........can you please send some snow to Michigan? I am craving snowy days to sew. This has been a very odd winter weather year in my neck of the woods.

    At our JoAnns in Medina, it was $9.99. That $12.99 is absurd....worse then quilt shops.

    Yep, I thought the same- 12.99!! You got to be kidding me. I left mine at the store- even though I wanted it bad!
