Yikes!

I don't know where the time as gone but I had signed up to sew along with the Shenandoah Valley Botanical quilt which starts October 1st. Yikes, that is tomorrow! I haven't even picked out my background fabric yet.


I'd sure like some company with this. Won't you join Dawn (Collector with a Needle) and Hilda (Every Stitch) and many others in this fun adventure? You can order your pattern here. Woohoo!

      You have way more willpower than I do. Just need more hours in the day now.

    Oh Dear! I'm the worst at picking fabrics for a quilt..I pull them, put them back & so on...I think I have a little bit of Lucille Ball in me..
    Good luck choosing..

    I only watch when it comes to applique. This is an ambitious quilt. Hope you can zero in on just the right fabric quickly! : )

      I think I've found it but I'm a little nervous that it might be too much color. Is there such a thing?

    Hope you found your background quickly. Were you dodging raindrops today? I saw Maine was flooding. Stay dry.

      Zeroing in on the choice. And yes, we made it through the flooding o.k. but we were very fortunate.

    Must finish my LE quilt for a show next year so I'm putting my blinders on! I do plan to watch your progress though.

    So looking forward to your fabric selections - and maybe, just maybe...might you be doing pot holder style? Glad you are joining in!

    You will catch up in no time. You have good design sense and I know you will select wonderful fabrics for the quilt.
