Sunday Stash #287 – Greys for Days
I did not realise I would enjoy being in a fabric subscription club as much as I do! I always kind of boo-hoo’ed them as I figured I could buy the specific fabric I wanted, when I wanted. Because I’m a strong, independent quilt-maker, y’all. Well, that was until I started going to my fabric cupboard of love to realise I was missing a quality selection of reds, oranges, and greys. That’s just the colours I’ve noticed in the past week!
Well, now, random colour bundles just show up at my doorstep courtesy of The Next Stitch. Do I need the fabric for any pressing project … no. However, will I miss it when I go to work on a new project and don’t have it … abso-fabric-lutely. It’s been two months / deliveries, and I’m already flexing out my solids collection. Serendipitously, Grandma Sparkles and I were talking the other day, and she says to me, “So I need a quilt featuring greys.” Looks like she’s come to the right place!
It seems like everyone is suddenly needing a quilt. Does that happen to you? They all come at once? Maybe they can sense that I’m dwindling my WIP pile right down? Whatever it is, these neutrals are surely going to come in handy for the sunny and grey days ahead!
Nice selection of grays. Aren’t you thrilled when someone comes to you and says ‘I need a quilt”?
So I worked in a fabric store for 27 years, a stand alone quilt shop for 2 and NEVER did I see the stunning variety the likes of Next Stitch! Fabulous variety. Can hardly wait to see what you do with these greys.
