A few people, at my invitation, have sent me their orphan blocks. I will put these together and make charity quilts for kids. I have an enormous pile of them on my cutting table! Don't know when I'll get time to work with them all, but I'll try a little this next weekend. I usually have more time in the summer, too, so that will soon be upon us, and I'll get busy sewing.
The other day I popped in to one of my favorite quilt shops ( Colorful Quilts in St. Paul, MN) and bought these beautiful oriental fabrics. She always has a great selection in her sale area; I got these at half price! She loves bringing in new and gorgeous fabrics, so she keeps the "old" ones moving fast through the sales area. It's a very beautiful shop and aptly named. Her quilts are bright and beautiful.
It has been a long, busy week at work, and I'm looking forward to the weekend. My son's college choir is having their big spring concert on Sunday. I always love their concerts.

THe red and pink fabric on the left is just fabulous! I'm afraid I would never be able to cut it. Ihope you don't have that phobia about cutting into gorgeous fabrcis.
These are wonderful--what will they inspire you to make?
I reallylike the red and pink on the left as well, looks great, Tracey
Love the pink and red oriental fabric -- like Joyce, not sure I could cut it, but then again -- I could force myself!
