Meandering Through Life . . .

Yes, there has been a bit of meandering going on around here.

Some regular meandering . . .

and some loopy meandering.

The first one is almost complete . . . just two more edges that need the binding sewn down on.  The second one will be coming with me for the weekend road trip and will hopefully have all of it’s binding done by then also.

And then the mailman finally arrived on Monday with some fabric that had been shipped on December 20th.  Thank goodness it wasn’t for a particular project . . . just a gleam in my eye at this point.  I LOVE those prints – look at those little trees and the beautiful colors on all of them!  When I see a sale I just have to stock up on the things that I like.  I had already purchased the charm packs back in the Summer/Fall on one of our little road trips, but I had nothing to go with it until I saw some of the coordinating prints come on sale.  Opportunity was a’knockin’!

On the same sale were some 3 Sisters prints (Park Avenue?/Aster Manor? – I can never keep them straight!) that I needed for “potential” borders and also some more red and black flannels to go with a wonderful package that I had bought back in October from The Quilt Patch girls from Moose Jaw.  Isn’t that black gorgeous?!??!   I need a flannel project to start on one of these days – anyone have a suggestion?

I love the tree fabric too, isn't it fun! Christmas prints are certainly different to what they used to be, thank goodness some might say.
