I came home from the other day and what did I find? A little unexpected envelope-packet with my name on it. Hummm....was I internet shopping at night and forgot? Oh, no. It's better than that. This little envelope is filled to the brim with FABRIC!
I met a lovely woman, named Mary, at a recent guild meeting. She was showing a spectacular scrappy quilt at show-and-tell that was a white background and a gazillion little 2 inch squares in a sprawling geometric pattern. I loved it! She used the Confetti pattern from http://www.teaquilts.com/. You can view a gallery of finished quilts here.
Anyway, as part of the pattern you will need (are you ready?) 1,328 little 2 inch squares. WHAT!?!? Not to worry! Mary was kind enough to start me off. She must have sent a hundred to me in the mail today. What a fantastic surprise! Quilters are such nice people, aren't they?
I would be grateful if anyone else was willing to donate a few 2 inch squares to my quilt project. I have been quilting for just over a year now and just do not have a big enough stash...and I am sure you have a stash you want to be rid of. I am looking for brightly colored fabric. Nothing white/beige as it would blend into the background. If you have a few squares to spare, would you leave a comment below? I will get in touch with you.
Cindy, if you email me your address, I'll start saving 2" squares for you. My email is fdowell@mindspring.com
