Oh Mama!

Okay, so I've got lots to show you here. I felt particularly inspired to create one day so I finished the batik strip quilt. Pattern: My Colors Went Wild

On the same day, I made an apron for me because I sold my original. This is the 11th one (got my money's worth on this pattern!) and I love the fabrics. Specifics:
Chatterbox apron pattern by Mary Mulari.
The main fabric: It's Hoot by Momo for Moda, In Flight in Sky,
Accent fabric is Sugar Pop by Liz Scott for Moda, Dot Dot Dot in Eggplant.

Garage sale finds:
pink is unused pillow case and yellow is a handmade half apron-50 cents each!

Vintage tablecloths still in the package? Are you kidding?! The one on the left has matching napkins too. $1 each! 
OH, AND LOOK! A MAGIC 8 BALL, RIGHT? WRONG! It's a freaky sarcastic ball!
  "Will I win the lottery?"
 
Okay, fine! "Are you RUDE?"
Forget it. "Will I marry John Cusack or what?!"

Answers that I guess! What deals have you gotten lately?

  3. That quilts rocks. Makes me think of some great fabric I go the other day, you have to check out their stuff, there's a link from my blog if you want to. Anyways the quilt is beyond gorgeous. You do such great work. And that apron, still like it, what a great pattern.

    Busted out with the fortune ball being one with sass, does that suit you or what?! hahaha.

    I'm loving that table cloth still in the package. What a great little print on it. Those other finds are awesome too. Have any specific plans for any of them?

  7. Funny "8 ball" makes you keep a good sense of humor about life. Maybe you were meant ot hook up with Brad Pitt instead? Or George? LOVE the color in the batiks. Do you really wear the too cute apron??? :)
