HAS THIS EVER HAPPENED TO YOU?????

I am wondering if any of you have been quilting along

singing a song,(things are going good)

sewing to the music of your favorite machine, (enjoying the moment)

when.......

when.....

you are at the home stretch.....

your project is almost done....

and....

and....

YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH FABRIC TO FINISH!!!!!

My goal today was to finish this king size quilt I am working on...

.I made such headway but....well...

you all know,

 when I went to talley up the fabric for the remaining border....................

NOT ENOUGH

Lucky for the family I was in an easy mood today ....

no stomping my feet,

 no back going out from throwing a fit....

Yes, I handled it well.  I wore my big girls panties today!!

My son and I went around and hunted down the fabric, only took two stores...

so all is not lost...sheweeeeee

So...while I waited (for the rush hour to be over)

I finished this!!
and made this:

I received this in the mail from Rhonda from Ravelly....thanks sooooo much, I love love love it!!!

SHARING THE WEALTH!!

Jacquelynne sent me these awesome fabrics today... Look at this panel....can't you just see your little ones with their hot wheels playing on this?
You know you want to...

.I know....you want to

and you know that I know that you want to feel my fabric....

You want to press it to your nose and smell...

Oh yesss....

if not, then what in the world is wrong with you?

These fabrics are awesome!!!  More awesome than the pictures show you?
Happy Town by Jacquelynne Steves for Henry Glass & Co.

I have been doing the happy dance since these have arrived this afternoon.

 So.....yep....I just had to.

 One fabric just hung out among all the rest for me to make one of my beloved towels.

I was wondering how my machine would work on micro fibre cloth and now I know...not so well.

Easy quick project if you need a fast gift.

Now for the fun part.

AND LET IT BE SAID THAT BARB OF BEJEWELS PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS.

THAT I TRULY DO SHARE.....BECAUSE

and I am whimpering while I say this....I don't want to.....

but...I am giving away 4 fat quarters....

 Okay, here goes..

Since I was given this fabric and I am sharing with you, there just has to be a few hoops...sorry.
 1. Leave a comment
 2. go to The Noble Wife, look around her blog (infact she has an awesome giveaway going on as well....and become a follower.


Just a quick reminder about the  "Quilt for Kids" Contest 

Here are the four fat quarters....ummmm ummmmm good (trust me, I did not want to share that orange fabric.....I just didn't....just being honest here).
Here is a better picture for you.

I will pick a winner when I have another project done,  (I already know what I am going to do)...then I will give away some more fat quarters.
