I love Fabric...

Sister Jana and daughter in law Heidi were working at the quilt shop so i went shopping...

This is the finished wonky star quilt sister Jana made for in the shop and will eventually go to her in laws...

They have kits for the quilt using layered cakes but i tend to like the darker fabric colors
so had a pile of fabric for Jana to cut...

 I came home with enough fabric to make 2 wonky star quilts and couldn't resist starting...

Heidi's babe, Jana's grandbabe was helping too...

Heidi was finishing up a cute lil hat for her babe..

we had a local restaurant reopen after a fire so Sister Jana/Steve, Carol P/Chuck and I went out to eat and check it out.. we went to school and are friends with Paul the owner.

Congratulations on your reopening Paul! we enjoyed our meals!
as you can tell i was craving...deep fried food! yum!!
