Lucky For Me!...

Brynwood Needleworks - Baby Quilt Flannels
 
When I started cutting the flannels for the baby quilt, I realized that I needed six different fat quarters, not the five I originally shared. Great. I bought them as a fat quarter pack a few years ago, and would need a minor miracle to find something (other than white flannel) that would fit in.

I went into my fully stuffed well-appointed fabric studio and started looking through my flannels. See the floral print at the very top of these two stacks? Yep. I lucked out! It looks like it was meant to be in that pack. In actuality, it's a flannel baby receiving blanket I purchased in a package for a shower years ago. I actually purchased about three packs (neutral, boy and girl), and this one didn't get used. Talk about "serendipity"!

I've cut out the fabrics, but still can't sit in my sewing chair. I think I may end up taking my machine over to the cutting table in my machine studio so I can stand and sew. I'm really tired of being precluded from sewing because I can't sit comfortably. It's really frustrating. I'll ask Handsome to lend me some brawn today to get my Destiny moved. I need to sew!

  2. MM-
    Certainly a lovely coincidence! I love shopping my inventory, rather than going out looking for something new.
    Thanks for you note.
