The subtle rainbow of fabrics were quite a find. Together with the one sent off to Nines for her own use, I grabbed up backing for eight quilt tops in one fell swoop....for a bargain price of
under $10 per quilt. Whoever heard of such a thing? I had one more quilt to match, but didn't find what I wanted so resisted. Ironically, the one I didn't match was the first one I pieced. All these pretty pieces, except the browns on the corner, will be stashed away for future delivery to In where their mates await completion. Their mates aren't anxious or lonely...I'm sure they're keeping each other happy company as they wait contendedly in that workshop of wonder.
But perhaps I should consider storing my future quilt tops here for a while, lest the added numbers get burdensome. I have my fun putting them together and fully trust the hands that store them for quilting whenever. I truly don't care if they don't get done in my lifetime...I know they won't end up in a yard sale or thrift shop. But one really shouldn't over tax a dear daughter, should one.

I've missed you here! And I've missed you in Indiana, too!! Well, I suppose that this gets you all up to date! I still love the slates- it is going to be so very hard to let them go- not that I need them, per se- I just am greedy and I want them! I am seriously considering giving Teresa the Heart and Home slate -it is so very her and that way I won't need to press you into making me one for her! I wonder what Aunt Isobel would price them at? Love you and thank you so much for the aprons and the fabric!
Aunt Isobel would price them at $25.00 - $30.00. You could always come down a little if they don't sell at that price. I love them, too.
