A Visit to Quilted Threads
I am teaching a letters class at Quilted Threads on Saturday, May 4. Every student in the class will get a copy of the new letter tutorial. QT needed a letter quilt to hang on display so I brought one of my favorites, Nine x Nine.
While I was there I chose this Kaffee Fassett fabric for the back of the Whirlygig quilt. As I was waiting for it to be cut another customer walked by and looked at it, then at me. "Wow. That is REALLY bright," she said.
I didn't say anything. I thought it was freaking perfect.
"I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings," she continued.
"Trust me," I told her, "you are NOT hurting my feelings."
I've got an eye exam later today, and I'm sure they'll dilate my pupils so I won't be able to read or sew or do anything remotely interesting later. I guess I'll clean the house. (snicker). Yeah, we'll see!
PS, the letter tutorial won't be ready before May 1st. Believe you me, I'll let you know when it's ready.

Freaking perfect, the exact phrase we all need to say sometimes. Bright and beautiful, and just right for the job.
Does this mean the "letter tutorial" will be up for sale pretty soon ???
Hope so , hope so. Perfect answer about the fabric for the Whirlygig quilt
:-)
The best thing about Kaffes are they are Really Bright.
You handled that comment well; I happen to think that it's perfect too-- the movement(!)of that print calls out: 'made to order'. My DH had his eyes dilated yesterday, he did NOT clean house when he got home. ;)
My answer would be..."Yes, I love it". To each their own, some of us are color and pattern junkies.
I have heard that occasionally...
My response has been....
Yah...Isn't it wonderful
or
Yah and it took me forever to find it
or
Oh good I was not sure I had it right.
Last summer we stayed at the Henniker B&B across the street from QT. What a fabulous shop! (And that Kaffe print is wonderful -- using it as a back will give those big flowers a place to pop.)
I like to clean with my glasses off. Sometimes it is better not to see everything. :)
