Over a week ago we went to the Zoo, and it just HAPPENS to be near a Hobby Lobby, and for once we left the zoo kind of early so we weren’t totally smashed, SO I figured WHY not stop by Hobby Lobby and check things out??
And this is what I acquired 🙂
Some of these were 2 and $3 a yard (on the left) and Owl and matching striped was $5 a yard.
I’m thinking a skirt for me with ELASTIC waist for ME, as I can’t fit my clothes anymore and have ONE pair of maternity shorts, the rest of the maternity clothes is long…..
The owl fabrics I want to make a dress for Sonja- Surprise, surprise 😉
BUT, first I had to do some quilt guild BOM testing! I’m ALMOST done, but this is what I have so far.
A cabin block, partly FPP
an appliqued camper block (still needs more detail before I iron everything down and stitch it down
a small star block that I actually REALLY like, wait and see 🙂
Nuts and bolts
Scrappy red and white/off white
wonky scrappy strips
D9P with Kaffe fabrics
a fun cowboy boot (I used a Singaporean fabric that had a border print on it already)
and my design wall with all the blocks so far
And YES I did run out of bobbin thread right in the middle of an appliquéd block!
The kiddos played Row Row Row your boat on a roll of batting I had out to cut batting for my completed tops- so I’m starting to catch up on those too!

That's some great progress recently.
