No, not robbed ... Painting!

I am painting kitchen and family room in preparation for new kitchen tile and sink being put in next week.  I bought 5 colors of paint samples, put them up, picked my favorite ... Painted one coat today and it is way too bright!  Heading to paint store tomorrow am with tile in hand and hope someone can help be find a better alternative!

I did do a little sewing on my APQ quilt along this week, but it was fabric already counted in my totals.  So nothing in or out!

I did a little fabric retail therapy this week ... Found some lovely fabric on sale

The bottom is a black dot from Sweetwater "Elementary;" the top two fabrics are Sweetwater "Boathouse" fabrics ... I love this new line of fabric and am trying quite hard to resist buying it all. Luckily I have only seen it online and not had the pleasure of being able to feel it!  I also bought a 1/2 yard of a cute, orange sherbet stripe fabric.

I am just going to pretend like I did not just disappear for a week and a half!!!  I will bombard you with posts this week and you will get sick of me!!

Lucky for me I have been sewing right along on my APQ Quiltalong so using more of my fabric ... Because I snuck in a little fabric too!

Oh my goodness these fractions are killing me!!!!  Haha

Want to see what was responsible for the 2 yard addition to my stash .... Polka dots ... Well kind of!!

I am currently having an obsession with Navy blue ... I believe it has something to do with the fact that fabric designers are bombarding us with it right now!!  Just as an FYI ... The picture credit goes to Fat Quarters online shop, but I did not purchase my fabrics there.  Quilt on friends!

Stash Report - Week 5

Oops ... Forgot my stash report this week.  Made a backing for my Richmond Reds quilt and also the Community top too.  In addition, I used a yard of fabric to make a new ironing board cover.  Nothing exciting, just muslin.  I also added some much needed background fabrics this week.  I found some on sale, so bought at least a yard of each.  I only have smaller pieces of backgrounds, so I considered it a good investment.

Ok, moving right along here!  Another week where I went fabric shopping!  I told you I found a great quilt to make, haven't done this in a while where I buy new fabric and a pattern just for me.  So I don't feel guilty about it!  Also, finished the top of my Christmas quilt, so at least I used something!
