Got grey thread - and more fabric

By Cheryl on May 20, 2006 11:20 AM | No Comments

Of course, on my way home from work Tuesday, I had to get grey thread for Keepsake Kitty so I stopped by Jo-Ann Fabrics...and spend 2 hours there browsing through fabric and thread. I fell in love with the purple, orange, and yellow tropical print...and the garden print...and the snowy pine tree print. Right now, I'm thinking pajama bottoms or sleep shorts from each, and a valance or some type of curtains for my home office window from the garden print.

I didn't get a chance this week after work to sew, but I plan to work on the Keepsake Kitty this weekend, try to understand how to machine quilt the top once it's been pieced, and try to get around to making the cutting board cover from the lovely fabric I bought a few weeks ago.
