{Post 1,301} My New FQs

My fabric order from Whittles Fabrics came so quickly.  I got duplicates of six of the prints, but they will all be used eventually.  Here are the 14 unique ones.

Talked with a friend today who is going to be the contractor for our building project.  Very excited about designing and decorating a new sewing room.  Not so thrilled about boxing it all up during the construction.  But it is an opportunity to purge and organize, right?

I will be visiting my sister's family in Ohio for a couple weeks at the end of the month.  She is expecting her 11th baby.  So exciting.  I am driving up with my parents (about 12 hours) and flying back.  I don't know if I will have wifi at her house.  If you don't hear from me, I don't.

We are so blessed.  I am sitting in the hospital with a friend who was in a bad car accident yesterday AM.  He is my oldest son's age.  I came in so his wife could get out of here for a few hours.  He is lethargic, confused, and mostly sleeping; it is draining to just sit and wait.  He is stable and they expect a full recovery.  He has a concussion that is pretty severe.

{Post 1,300} Changes on the Horizon & Finished 9-Patch Blues Quilt Top

This is just the quilt top.  I am debating whether to add another border, but I'm thinking I like it like this.  The outside edge is not bias because of the way the corner triangles were cut.  This measures 65" x 78".

We as a family have a lot of changes coming up.  I am going to drive to my sister's (about 12 hours' drive away) for 7-14 days.  Time will tell.  She is having her 11th baby, and I am going to help with...with...well, I guess with anything I can!

Our oldest daughter moved back in with us before Christmas.  She will be living here with her baby for some time.  That means a little shuffling around of room occupants and a little construction (I'm wording it that way to make it sound fast, inexpensive, and easy--I am not convinced.).  Baby is due July 1.

The upside to me is that I am gaining a new sewing room.  What is now our screened-in porch will become my sewing room.  My sewing room will become my daughter's bedroom.  The guest room where she is staying now will become the nursery.  Easy peasy, right?  LOL!  

{Post 1,299} Shopping Help Needed

Did you know I HATE to shop?  True story.

I bought two quilt patterns recently with Christmas money I was given.  They both call for Civil War cream prints.  I think the best thing for me to do is buy a FQ bundle.  Any suggestions for where I should buy them online?  

Thanks in advance!
