Well, choosing fabrics for my project was as for as it went last night. I was exhausted. Today at the office I was faced with the constant battle of not wanting to be there. But the weekend is here now and I intend to make the most of it.
Here are my fabric choices for the stitchery project.
The green set is my favorite.
Take a closer look at the crème fabric.
It is flower names scrolled throughout the fabric. I’m completely in love with this piece. It was a fat quarter piece from a store closing in Green Bay. I wouldn’t call it beautiful, but there is just something about it that speaks to me.
We’re headed shopping in Marquette tomorrow. The weather has temps at 5 degrees max and 35 below for the wind chills. So we might as well shop until this artic front moves away.

Oh I totally love the fabric with words on it! If I came across it, I'd have to buy at least a yard. You can do so many things with it...use it for a background for some altered art, or decoupage a slice onto something...or better yet, make some napkins and embellish them. Oh I'm going to have to keep my eye out for something similar! :)
I like the fabrics you have chosen for the Christmas Wish quilt. The backgrounds are both lovely.

I also am in love with that fabric with the flower names.... how perfect :o)
Enjoy shopping! I was so sad to learn we are getting more artic cold. Brr!
Those fabrics look just like spring . . . like being in the garden even if you must stay indoors *s*
I love the green set, really sets off your hand work.
This is going to look wonderful when it is completed!
I agree that the green just sets it off nicely!
I am very much attracted to fabric that has words printed on it. Especially those that are background type fabrics. Nice find.
I love the red fabrics. It works for spring, summer and christmastime!
That flower name fabric is wonderful - I'd happily give a bolt of that a home :o)
I vote for the green too - and the flower name fabric is lovely. Completely empathise with your feelings about work - but hey, it's the weekend!
Your fabric choices are gorgeous! Just right. Can't wait to see the finished project. ~Adrienne~
I love the red, but either would compliment the project. Ohh the word fabric is perfect though.
I love that fabric with the words all over it! I think that it is the perfect background fabric.
Thanks for sharing!
I love fabric with words. I buy it any time I see it. I have not seen that one. Lucky you. The other fabrics are lovely too
Great stitchery and lovely choice of fabrics..
Beautiful fabric. I like both and can't decide which I like better LOL! Here's hoping you'll get some livable weather soon!!!!!! UGH no one should have windchills that cold.
I am new to blogging but I like the green one the best if it makes any difference. I have only been on since the 8th of Jan. But I am loving it.
Wonderful fabric for you Christmas Wish quilt.
I am loving this project! I am being so-o-o tempted to do this one!
