Our annual trip to the USA was moved up from November to the end of August this year. I had high hopes that this would be an awesome FART -- Fabric Acquisition Road Trip. I had dreamed about all the wonderful fabric I would buy. But alas, it was not meant to be. Instead, it turned out to be the Shoe Acquisition Road Trip -- seven pairs of shoes/sneakers -- and I'm not complaining.
I purchased the orange wide-back with the plan to use it on the back of my Gravity quilt, but I have since changed my mind.

Before I purchased the orange wide-back, I wanted to use this Michael Miller HST print for the back of Gravity, but the thought of having to piece the back stopped me. But I did buy one metre for the back of the Gravity pillows.

Some miscellaneous prints because the price was right.

And a few more...just because...

I did purchase notions at Joann's: several bottles of spray baste, a bottle of spray starch, pins, and rotary cutter blades -- using 50% off coupons. Yeah for coupons!!
