Some Quilt Shop Goodies .....

I have been receiving Emails for the past 2 weeks now, letting me know that a local quilt shop is moving it's location and having huge sales going on to diminish the inventory that is moved....Well, I finally decided to stop in yesterday and check it out...I did manage to get a few good deals , but seems like alot of the really awsome fabrics and such were picked over allready... I decided to look mainly for fabrics for Fall and found some really nice top quality prints and a few pieces of wool and a nice blue stripe. I also grabbed a large piece of duck cloth to repair the awning of my daughter's, boyfriends, Grandma's porch swing...Wow, that's a mouthful....LOL



I was really checking out all the store samples of finished quilts and quilt tops and found a nice one for $25..I didn't measure it but it seems to be about as big as a Twin Size quilt...it's just the top but fell in love with the pattern and colors !!



Some pics of my new "Blue" Bathroom ....

Some time ago I decide to change my bathroom off our bedroom from Burgundy and Hunter Green (yummmmmm ...LOL) to colonial blue and tan.... I still haven't done anything to the walls, but I removed wallpaper border and fixed some holes and such.. still deciding what color to do the walls in, etc.....
Here are a few pics of some shelves I re-painted, and some goodies I acquired for in there.. I really fell in love with some old blue bottles I found at a garage sale and started looking for some old toiletry items...






Then...I found some old shaving cream brushes, this little blue bowl and an old straight razor and blade razor at a small antique mall booth , super cheap !!

  2. Blue is my most favorite color in the world and especially deep dark navy and cobalt so I love the updates to your bathroom!!!

    Great deals on the fabric and the quilt top :)

    Do you have lots of ideas planned for everything now or are you like me and can't decide what to do when I have too many options? LOL

    Have a great day!
