Quilt Shop Shopping

Today I went up to Bear's Paw Fabrics.  This great shop participated in the Quilter's Quest last year and is on the list again this year.  You can find out more about the Quilter's Quest at their site. It doesn't start until November and I'm already excited.  I should hurry up and finish the quilt from last year.  I have the top finished but need to get the back pieced so I can quilt it.

I couldn't pass up some coordinating prints for the charm pack from Moda called Mixed Bag by Studio M.  Such a fun line of fabrics.  The origami print could not stay on the shelf.  It had to come home with me.  I also picked up a couple pieces of wool felt for a simple project.  A skirt pattern that I thought I had to have.  The two rulers from Jaybird Quilts are something I wanted to try, too.  I was really looking for the Mini Hex N More ruler, but I figured coming home with the big ruler wouldn't hurt me.  

I need to quit admiring my ability to break my fabric diet and go finish my Big Bold quilt.  I did piece the borders today.  I hope to share the finished top soon.  I am still thinking and planning my custom quilting for that one.
