Coaster Basket and Some Goodies for me!

I have finished up the little coasters for the basket.  Even with a slight wonk to their edges I think they're sweet.

Log Cabin Coasters

Coasters snug in their basket.



Here's a wee peek at a pressie from my lovely mum.  She has been on holidays in Florida for the last 4 weeks and look what goodies she brought me all the way from JoAnns -

2 mini- jelly rolls - fab!


I am green with envy that US folk can pick up these little fqs for 99c!  I have read some comments about JoAnns - some folk love it, some seem to hate it - but I have to say if we had one in the UK I'd definitely be a fan!  UK readers will understand my awe at this amazing fabric price.  Okay so they may not be designer fabrics but they are cute and gorgeous and they are about a quarter of the price we pay here for fqs!  Rock on JoAnns!  And mum, you can bring me back these kind of goodies any time - thank you so much!

  1. Such nice fabrics and the price! I am sick with envy too. We should start a petition that JoAnns start a few branches over here. And that is a lovely present for your mother. Lucky her. Hope you are enjoying your weekend.

  2. How lovely are your coasters/basket set!!! I hope your mum-in-law loved them. Your mum chose well, you'll have great fun deciding on how to use them. Jxo

  3. My stupid email is not being polite to me so thought I would send you a quick message this way. Thanks for the comment on my scrappy quilt. I had fun doing that one because there wasn't a plan so could just wing it. You have been quiet lately so I do hope that all is okay and that you have been getting some time to play at the sewing machine too. Enjoy the rest of this lovely weekend.
