A little over 30 years ago, I started collecting fabric. I felt like I needed a good variety in order to make my quilts. About 10 years ago, I stopped collecting fabric. I determined that I needed to sew up my fabric before I could buy any more. I have only made a few exceptions since then, and I try to limit myself to buying only solids. You will be able to tell by my quilts that most of the fabric is now what is called "vintage."

RSC16 Sampler
2016 Column Along - Twinkler Star - I am off to a slow start, but I finally got one of my twinkler stars completed. They were actually easier than I expected. I used the tri-recs rulers and it was a piece of cake! Thanks to Angela for the encouragement to do these stars. I was really dreading it and they turned out to be easy!

They turned out beautifully! Glad that you gave it a try.
