New fabrics-New Quilting ideas

Today was a great day for my fabric stash! Lots of awesome new additions. 





I got some Joel Dewberry(for my big quilt giveaway), and Flo's garden in the mail today! 
I also stopped by our local fabric shop(which rarely has nice stuff, sadly) and picked up some cute pinks and got a killer deal on some red/green polka dot cottons. Oh and I bought my first Aurifil Quilting Thread, which I am so excited to test out!


This is  Flo's garden, I am in love!! The corals and teals and birds...oh my! This will be a quilt that i will have a hard time parting with ;) 


Yummy Pink/Peach and Coral cottons! Maybe I should just frame it to avoid cutting it up ;)


This was my amazing deal of the day!! My local quilt store had a shelf of these Dot(and chevron) colours in the clearance section marked 'as is'. Turns out they came pre-cut in 1 and 1.5 sections so they were clearancing them off. Lucky me!! I bought 1.5 meter of the red for $6 and 1 meter of green for $4(and it was the end of the bolt so I an additional .5 meters for free! Yippee! Gotta love these rare finds in Canada. Its rare....usually good quilting cotton is $14-$22 a meter

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST........
(drum roll please) 




The rest of the fabric for my quilt giveaway arrived!! I am hoping to have it all quilted up this weekend.
