Squishies!!

I got 2 squishies in the mail this week!

The first was my parcel of fabric postcards from the Black and White Swap on the About.com Forum!  Christine also added a few extra gifts which was really sweet of her!



So many cool fabrics!  I'm planning to use them to make a larger version of a redback spider quilt featured in AP&Q Magazine a few months back.  I'm going to make the wedges for the web differently to utilize the postcards the most efficiently.

It's really far down on my list but I'm looking forward to it anyway!

The other squishy is from Sue who sent me some of her spare selvages to squirrel away for one of my (future) selvage projects! Thank you, Sue!  What a lovely surprise!

It's here!!!

After only 10 days my lovely Aster Manor yardage has arrived from the US!

Draped over the couch


Close up



As usual, click on the pics for a bigger one with more detail!  I'm fairly sure I will FM quilt around the big asters in the outer border.  Lots of selvage to squirrel away too! :-)
