Hello SeptemBER :)

I'm so excited to say that we are in the "Bers" Baby!

Man I love this time of year!

Even the fact that my sewing machine has been out for a very long over-due service and cleaning since last Friday *ugh* I'm still a happy camper today! I haven't been able to sew but I have been keeping busy. I've cut out all the pieces I need to get started on my next quilt.

I'm using Happy Camper by American Jane.

I've also been drooling over some new fabrics that the mail carrier brought me this week.

I have some fabulous fabrics from Sweetwater's Hometown collection. I didn't want any of the prints with all the names of citys on them so rather than buy a layer cake or charm packs I chose only the prints I really love. These fabrics will be a curtain for my bathroom made with a free pattern I found

over at Moda. I'll post more about it when I get it done.

I also received a charm pack of Sweetwater's Countdown to Christmas that I abso-stinkin-lutely love love love!!! A table runner maybe? Cute Christmas coasters? Not really sure yet.

Then I bought 3 yards of Punctuation by American Jane!

Why? I don't know. I just am so in love with it.

I'm sure I'll think of something fun....right?

I mean.....seriously.....how cute is this?

Luckily I bought all this BEFORE my self imposed "fabric fast" during the entire month of September. What was I thinking?

 The day after I announced to my hubby that I wouldn't buy any fabric in September, I got the Joann's flyer in the mail

and guess what?

September is National Sewing Month!!!!

Are you kidding me? Do you think there might just be a few sales during National Sewing Month?

*sigh*

"No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it". 1 Cor. 10:13

I copied that scripture and taped it to my computer monitor,

I'm gonna need all the help I can get :)
