Fabric

As I reported earlier, today was a gift fest at work....What do you say when a non-quilty co worker gives you a gift bag and inside are 2 1 yard pieces of fabric? You almost want to say,
"OMG...you seriously know me"...and almost cry... That is what happend today when I opened a gift bag and inside was a large ziploc bag with these 2 fabrics inside...the front fabric is called mirabelle by Alexander Henry and the back fabric is a Laurel Burch. I could not get over the fact that this girl would order me 2 yards of fabric for Christmas! I KNOW the mirabelle is going to be a purse for sure. I don't know what I'll do with the LB but I'm looking forward to picking a purse pattern out and making it for the spring.... Miss Abby, if you're out there....You're a keeper!!!
Happy Holidays to you and yours!!!

What a great gift. The decisions to be made with the fabric. A purse will be nice. The other fabric could line the purse, just a gentle reminder of this wonderful gift.

It's so special when someone gives a gift that feels like they put sincere consideration into choosing just the right thing. It will be great fun for her when you show off your purse at work. Peggy, I think you have a soulmate there!
