This Saturday was the annual Quilters Garage sale at one of my favorite quilts shops. Past years have found me selling my extra fabric and notions at my own booth but this year we had some scheduling conflicts so I was only able to be a buyer…woe unto me.

My first purchase was this rope I used for the strap on this bag. The rope itself inspired the bag…not much doesn’t inspire me to make a bag. Especially snail bags.

It just doesn’t seem to be quite out of my system.

Which is available in our etsy shop.

Because the trees outside my window inspired me to make this bag.

or was it the trees outside the front door, or the house…well either way this is also available in the shop.

Then I found this fabric. Uh perfect! For the upcoming Turtledash bandanas! that I’m making for the participants, you know I’m pretty sure that will be done by October. Right?!

And finally this fabric, which reminds me of someone…who could it be?

baaaa
