I was getting supper ready and saw what a lovely sky!! Out my east window! With a moon rising!
If the sunset is pretty enough to reflect all the way around from the west, the actual sunset must be stunning. Love my open sky concept!

Layer Cake Additions

When the gov’t calls a legal holiday, I have a quilting friend with the day off! 🙂 Lunch out, a good drive, a quilt shop or clothing store or many of the above, and lots & lots of chat. It is great!
This trip I had 2 layer cakes (already purchased) that needed companion fabrics and my friend said one store had a lot of batiks and brights. The store was beautiful!! And quiet. And great inventory! And I spread out all over. Left them money and came home with 2 packets for future quilts, all ready to go.
Yellows, darker greens, browns, and near white with a “background” of grayish white and splash of brown/black. Dynamic!
Pinks, blues, purples in batiks with a “background” of violet and splash of gold with purples. I knew that color-wise a yellow would be a good compliment but I sure wasn’t sure I’d ever find it. Pleased with this stop in Monticello!
Do you separate your precuts when you buy them? I keep them wrapped up until I’m ready to use them. My friend got a new charm pack while we were out and immediately spread it out when we got home. So funny when we realized that!
and sew on...
