Stash enhancement

I am honestly trying not to buy more fabric. I certainly don’t need it. Except when I decided I want to make placemats for our Christmas dinner and I have very little Christmas fabric in my stash!!! (How can that be????)

MSQ to the rescue. I did an order a little while back and it arrived last week.

Keeping on theme, I got some gnomes for the main fabric, and the trucks were too cute to leave behind. I have to make 10 placemats for our guests, so I’ll make a few different styles.

And since I didn’t have much in the stash, I got some “coordinating” fabrics to go with the three main fabrics. Aren’t those mushrooms just soo cute??? Perfect for my gnomes!

They were also clearing out some Hallowe’en fabric. My Hallowe’en fabric stash is overflowing but…

I didn’t even notice those little cat faces among the jack-o-lanterns until I took it out of the box!

How cute is that???

Now this one I did notice…

Adorable right??? How could I not get those???

And last…

A beautiful blue batik 108″ for the back of the get-well quilt. Normally I don’t use batiks for backing, because it’s quite expensive – but this was on sale and really reasonably priced. It’s just going to make that quilt that much more special!

    You’ve got a great selection to work with! Those little kitty faces on the Halloween fabric is just too cute. I’ve got a bunch of the green bat material myself. I look at it every year and wonder what I should do with it.

    You really ordered some beautiful fabrics! I think the moon, stars and witch is my favorite. I used batik fabric as backing on my last quilt and it is as pretty on the back as the front. I like pretty or unusual backings and that quilt just needed that batik fabric.
