I'll be honest, I don't often get fun mail. This likely contributes to why I hardly ever go collect my mail. But today, I went to clear out the mailbox and there was a little key in my mailbox which means I got a package! Yay!
I opened it up as soon as I got in the house and found the fabric deliciousness I ordered a couple weeks ago when Pink Castle was having a fall 30% off sale.
Here are my goodies:
 |
| Typewriters and Newspapers from the Objects line from Robert Kaufman, Text by Allison Glass, and Tipu Birds from Lotta Jansdotter's Bella line |
 |
| This is Birds of a Feather from Alison Cole - not my usual pick but the colours are so saturated and happy. I love it! |
I also have been reading and reading about wonder clips on various blogs. I had looked at them before but they are kind of pricey around here. Usually about 8-10 dollars for a 10-pack. Since there was a 30% off sale and these were originally priced at 7 a pack, I got some.

| Hopefully they will be useful for holding down binding as I sew it on. |
And finally, I need to kind of catch up on my Lucky Stars BOM. I'm falling behind. Over the summer there were a few really fiddly blocks with small pieces. Doing the 12.5 inch blocks was hard enough so when I thought about doing the half-sized ones, I came up with all kinds of reasons not to keep up. However, if I'm going to finish this thing on time - and I intend to dammit! -- I better get cracking. Here's the one I made today:
 |
| Not too shabby. I have one more half-sized block to catch up on. Then I can go back to working month by month. Sad to say, I'm about three months behind. Yikes! |
Alright, time for supper....I think soup is in order!
