An absolutely gorgeous flood of red 1.5″ squares is arriving at my home each day, as I try to grapple with needing over 3000 of those little suckers for my red postage stamp quilt.
While I was in Austin for work, Cindy’s baggie of goodies arrived (wait! maybe I shouldn’t say “bag of goodies” and “Austin” in the same sentence???) Oh, well. It was, indeed, a baggie and it was, indeed, filled with goodies of the fabric kind.
Then, this afternoon another baggie arrived from Minnesota courtesy of Pieceful Wendy Do you think that the number of 1.5″ squares in each bag is a measure of how much the gifters love me? Yeah, me neither, but Wendy, just between you and me, I know who loves me the most 😉
and they are all the same size (I cannot say that about my own cutting skills!)
Tonight I received a message from UPS that some more scraps are headed my way from the Rocky Mountains and the home studio of Tierney Creates.
Then Roseanne from Homesewn By Us blogged about my project and she’s sending squares too.
I’m overwhelmed and I cannot wait to see how quickly I can get all these pieces sewn together. Thank you, thank you everyone!
P.S. I found out today that I’ll be traveling to London in January for work. I’m googling fabric shops in London right now….
