W.I.P Wedensday (A day late)


Yesterday was so crazy.   I woke up excited about having something to post for W.I.P Wednesday and the day was gone. After home school stuff with the kids, I went to my usual fabric store for fabrics to finish the scrappy comic strip, they didn't have anything I needed.  The lady recommended Hobby Lobby to take advantage of the 40%.  All I needed was some Kona white and Kona black.  I didn't want to order it online and have to wait for it. So my journey started to one Hobby Lobby using my phone navigation, after driving for what seemed like forever, there was no Hobby Lobby. So I looked up another and finally got what I needed. 

I think until I acquire a good little stash, I will stick to online ordering. However I did do more work on the scrappy comic quilt I'm making. Any who, here it is ready for quilting.

I apologize for my photo's. A new camera is on my wish list. 

This one is ready for quilting

Even though I had a migraine when I got home, I was happy to see my Fat Quarter Shop order had arrive. 


I received the Little Apples Fat Quarter Bundle and the Bella QuiltCon Solids both of which are on sale.
When I placed the order for the solids I had a clear idea of what I was going to do with them. Now I am not so sure. I will let you know when I decide.

    The comic quilt looks really interesting. What a relief to find the right fabrics in the end.

    March marked the end of our first year and I still feel as if I am not doing a good enough job sometimes. I am going to keep at and get better (I hope). Thanks for stopping by.
