Serendipity

 

I don't have a thing to show for TNT but I do have some happy quilting news for a change. What are the chances you'll have the exact size of baking material in the perfect pattern AND a piece of leftover batting that is also the exact right size? Slim to none around here but it happened yesterday.



And that's not all. My brown fabric showed up from Connecting Threads. I bought two different browns in hope that one would match and........one did. Unbelievable. 




Today would have been Dad's 94th birthday so maybe he's been sending down some good juju so I could finally, once and for all, get his leftovers finished. I can hardly believe that I could find a photo of him actually working on it but I did. We started this one in 2011.





But.....I'm not having the exact same kind of luck with Charming Stars. I've had to do a bit of seam ripping. The pattern is great, my color skills-not so much.
