I now have TWO COMPLETED quilts. I have 4 more tops waiting to be quilted!
My queen size Blue Roses is 1/2 done, but too hot too work on in this heat
So really only 3 1/2!

FINISHED my 3D fan quilt for my DGS this weekend. He doesnt get it though
'til his 1st b-day in Nov. It was a pill to complete. The 1st border I had
on it I did not like so took it off and changed to a bright turquiose fabric
with neon colored frogs for the border and back. After the first quilting,
the border and backing turned out wonky so ripped it out and redid. Added
another layer of batting too 'cause I thought it too thin. I was going to
put ties in the center of the fans but that didnt look right so added more
MQ instead. I am now satisfied with it.
Washed it yesterday. Will add the label tonight. Also made a pillow case to
store it in with the left over frog fabric. (Pictures still in camera.

I am itching to start a new quilt top. I have all fabric I need to start my
log cabin. But my fabric keeps telling me NOT YET Some of the fabric is
yelling at me "use me, use me." A couple are whispering "if you use me you
won't like it." Others are saying quietly "I'll look OK" and so there it
sits waiting for the right fabric to yell at me when I go to the fabric
shops.

I bought some fabric yesterday at 2 different Joann's. I was looking for
fabric for a class I am taking in Sept. At the first Joann's I found a lt
lime green with white flowers that was sorta OK to go with the forest green
I already had and so I bought it. At the 2nd Joann's I found a Crackled
Green which screamed at me "buy me, buy me" and it was PERFECT to go with
the forest green I also bought some sky blue with white speckles that
said "use me in a baby quilt" as I had decided to make a baby quilt for my
dd's friend (she's having her 2nd boy).

Does your fabric talk to you? Does this mean I have the dreaded disease
called "quilt fever" ??
