uh oh!  Saw some fabric on a FB quilting group, not for sale but someone using in a quilt, had to have some.  Just saw it tonight, so stole her pictures.
I've ordered the panels and the blue horse.  Not sure if I want the floral on black, I think that might make it too busy.

Need to enlarge a quilt project, so I've been looking for a fabric to use as a border, I may have found it.  I think it goes pretty good, and it's not always easy to work with blues and yellows.

Im not a huge fan of yellows, but that is nice!  I think that flower/butterfly fabric cgoes really well with it, too.

I'm not a huge fan of yellows; but blue and yellow are complementary colors are do go well together.  Glad this floral will work.  It'll probably be fall before I get back to work on this quilt, as I have to square up all 80 of those little triangle blocks and that's going to take quite awhile, so I think I'm going to start something quick, so I can finish up before June quilt meeting.

Put the blue and yellow away for now, as it's a lot of tedious work to do, so started something simple today.
I need to make at least 3 more blocks, maybe more depending on if I decide its a tabletopper or a lap quilt.  The focus fabric is a horoscope print.

As always, a unique design.  Not much into horoscopes, but the patterning is very cool!!

Went shopping yesterday, was looking for something else, which they didn't have; but found this lovely fabric collection that I couldn't pass up.   No idea how or when I'll use it, but I love it.
