This is just a quicksy post before I go to sleep. It has been a HUGE day and I am sleeeeeepy!

The online purchased-fabric supply is dwindling, that's for sure...but I'm still going strong! I was very encouraged by the gorgeous Sophie fat quarter set that arrived in the mail this week from QuiltTaffy.

Isn't that just beautiful? I've never gone with a fat quarter set of a range before but tell you what? With this range, it was worth every penny.

Since I did break down and buy interfacing (as I intend to make another Go Anywhere Bag soon!), I also picked up some heavy-duty Pellon to make a laptop sleeve to match my awesome bag! I love how stiff and white the Pellon is. I'm going to read up on how to use it before I dive in.

And I bought some more hand-sewing needles. I love Clover products! Just the BEST.

Tools for the job.

Some cream thread and a spool of vibrant red; piping cord rounds it out.

And last but not least, what arrived in my mailbox but these beautiful quilt labels? They are perfect for stitching onto quilts. I got them from Mommie Made It on Etsy and I can highly recommend their work.

Quilt labels!

So, true to form, not a lot of NEW fabric, but some new things to encourage sewing up my stash. I'm headed to bed, though, so the stitching will have to begin tomorrow! Adios, amigos.
