I stopped by the cute fabric store near my work to get batting for my sparkling gemstones quilt and got side-tracked! I think I might have a problem. instead of buying batting to finish that project, I added 3 new projects to my to-do list.
This shop sells batting in pre-cut sizes and did not have the size I wanted in stock - darn. Instead of leaving, I started looking around at fabric. Since I have a few projects (with fabric already) in my to-do pile, I was trying not to buy. ooops - dind't work out so well.
I found 3 different fabric that I thought would make cute bibs (apparently that will be my new obsession for a bit).
This "A" is for aligator is perhaps my favorite of the three!
I saw a Very cute pattern when I was reading up on one of my favorite
blogs. So, while I was trying to NOT buy every cute fabric to start a collection of colors for it, when I saw this polka-dot fabric (a Moda fabric from its "Bliss" collection) I could not help myself. Thought this would be Great for the white borders.
I also got Moda's "Sunkissed" layer cake. I wanted to make more fabric coasters - I think they will make great little gifts. Housewarming, host gifts, prizes for bunco, etc. I also found a great fabric 'dish' that I think I can adjust the measurements on to make it a holder for ~ 4 coasters (a nice little kit to make it a better gift).
Moral of the story - I have even MORE fabric and just added 3 projects to my to do list. I am guessing that I am not the only one with this problem - any suggestions on what to do about it?
