Yes, I'm kinda counting down. A thread on The Babywearer got me thinking last week. I'm going to have to start early this year and I've named Christmas 2010 "Quilty Christmas". I've never made a ragtime quilt but this year I plan to make at least 7, ranging in sizes from twin to king. I'm now on the hunt for fabric at garage sales or the thrift stores. I'll keep you updated on how things go :)
If you ever want to go through my scrap bin let me know.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to find fabric at the thrift store. I frequently look for "fabric" at ours to use for all sorts of different things: costumes, basket liners, inserts for gift baskets for the many silent auctions around here. I've had especially good luck with placemats and tablecloths. Happy hunting !
ReplyDeleteRagtime quilts are the best, they are warm and you can use them for everything: camping, picnics, on your bed...
ReplyDeleteOoh - just spent way too long reading your archives. Can't wait to read more (hopefully tomorrow while at work !) Glad we "met."
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone. I would love to sift thru your scrap basket Kirstin :)
