My DP blocks are in half-rows. I'm determined to finish the top today, and hopefully the quilt will be done by the end of the week. Well, except for the handstitching. That will take a few days, I'm sure. But it will be worth it :)
look what I picked up for the backing:
it is a flannel shirting from Joann's. I wasn't planning on using flannel, but once I picked up this bolt I couldn't stop stroking it :)
I think I've become a bit obsessed with the feel of fabrics. Even when I'm clothes shopping, I walk arround stroking the fabrics and commenting on the feel of them. I'm sure the salespeople think I'm nuts :)
Have a happy Wednesday! And stop by Freshly Pieced to see everyone else's WIPs!

Your DP's are looking great and the HM yum yum fabric is perfect with the grey.
Your DPs look fab!
Your blocks look great, and rest assured you are not the only one who goes around stroking fabric!
Great fabrics on the DP blocks - so cheerful! I know what you mean about the feel of fabric.
I've always been obsessed with the way fabric feels. As a child, I remember kind of wiping my hand off whenever I touched polyester. :) Thank heavens the way fabric feels has changed over time! :)
Can't wait to see your quilt finished!
Love the DP blocks and the shirting looks perfect!!
