Gorgeous!
These are ...
and they are RJR quality fabrics.
Specifically, Melody Miller
I preordered.
I never preorder.
I am not trendy.
I saw this fabric and my quilty muse breathed, "Yes!
This is the photo I snapped in the dim gray light of yesterday's rain
when I took them out of the nicely packaged and promptly delivered package
from Hawthorne Threads.
The beautiful border print is
Sparkle Flower in Multi
It is has gold metallic dots and it shimmers.

These were a pre-33rd anniversary gift from my hubby when he asked me what I might like for a fabric gift.
Yesterday he brought these home and a chicken dinner.
Our anniversary was actually last Saturday ...
and ... um ...
... on that day we both "forgot" ...
My hubby had worked all day and when he got home
we did go out to dinner ... just like any other Saturday night.
That is the way love is after 33 years.
Every day together is another day that when you add together
equals a lifetime of small celebrations of life.
The quilt behind these roses is My Favorite Quilt,
perfect in all its small imperfections.
Stitched together and sometimes patched in and resewn.
I hope to make another lovely creation with my trendy new fabrics
with someone special.
The color says "aqua" but it is a soft mint green.
My daughter loves mint green and pink.
I ordered them two months ago and last week she showed me an online photo of a mint green polka dot tea set with little pink roses that she is thinking to ask for a birthday present from her hubby as she is now in time and place where she must invite the other ladies to tea.
Think I know my girl?
I showed these fabrics to her via my trendy new iPhone and I am going to pack them with me for us to play with when I go to in September
to visit my Baby Girls.
Here is my grand-darling Everly after she just got home
from her two month checkup
where she had three shots and needed a little comfort from
her best friend. Sierra looks so protective in this photo.
My granddaughter is so beautiful!
Baby Girl is 24" long and 13 lbs 10 oz now,
a big healthy happy baby.
In September I will be visiting when it is time for her four month doctor's check.
She will be just starting to be ready for a little cereal.
What fun!
Time to quilt the pink charm baby quilt .. .
Have a happy quilty day!
:)
