Pink quilt, happy mail, new hard hats
I didn't get much done on the pink quilt; I had a busy evening once I got home after my appointment. I am almost to the corner. I ran a little short on the striped binding so I just added a piece of another pink fabric. Yes, the back is a bit more lavender, but I got a bolt at a great price. It looks a bit more lavender in the picture than in person.
I received two packages yesterday of fabric. This fabric was from Handcock's of Paducah. Most of it was on sale and I got another 20% off my entire order plus free shipping. There were a couple pieces that I ordered, but went out of stock which is not the end of the world.
I did not order that dark gray fabric. The color is Pepper. I had ordered some Robert Kauffman Fusions Spray in Pepper. Someone just cut me the wrong pepper. LOL!! I called Handcock's this morning and they are going to send me the right fabric.
The other package was from a shop I just found - Two Bees Fabric in Richardson, Texas. I was on a search for the Andover Jewelbox in gray. The online shop is very nice and they have lots of reproduction fabrics which is what I was looking for. I will be buying from them in the future! Right now I am in the mode to remake the bunkhouse quilts that I saw in the Yellowstone series and also the quilt Beth Dutton wrapped up in. I sure wish I could find enough vintage fabric, but what I have found is very pricy so reproduction fabric will have to due. I had ordered the Fusions Pepper before I found the Jewelbox.
I will have plenty of fabric to play with and plan on over the time I take off from work to get a start on my Yellowstone bunkhouse quilts. I need to dig thru my vintage fabric to see if I have fabrics that can add to the mix.
