Thankful.

Today I'm thankful....
 I'm thankful for a big chunk of time yesterday to get some blocks together.
This quilt was worrying me.
I don't know why I was stressing about this gift...
but I was.


I'm also thankful for leftovers.
Maybe they'll be in the border...???.

I'm thankful they're ALL 2 1/2" wide. ;)

I'm thankful for all the friends that pass on fabric to me.
I thought about THEM as I was piecing yesterday.

I'm thankful I have enough white for sashing this quilt.
I hope I'll remember to use the SAME. exact. white
as I go along.
Have you ever used DIFFERENT whites in a quilt???
I have.
It doesn't work.
;/

I'm thankful I won't need to BUY anything for this quilt!

I have QUITE enough fabric.

I have to keep telling myself that....
Over and over again.

    Funny you mentioned the 'white' as this has been a conversation with other bloggers - even from buying the same 'brand' white from one store and another and white is different.

    I'm with you it all has to be the same .I see a lot of scrap quits and while they are lovely I just can't get past the different whites .

    Yep. I have noticed this about white fabrics.
    I love this simple, sweet little block. Can't believe I haven't made a quilt using it already. It is in my near future!
