I think I have decided on Swoon thou I am not crazy about the name. It bugs me a bit.

Perhaps it has been a bit overused in the blog world. (in my humble opinion) But I degress....

This has been a slow subbing week.

 A short week at school will do that.

So yesterday I chipped away at the layers of mishmash that had collected

throughout our house whilst listening to Pandora.

I finally made my way to my machine and

began to chip away at my unsightly pile of UFO's when

the husband called and suggested I should get groceries,

except I heard.....

"go to the fabric store to find fabric for that quilt you have been talking about,

oh and pick up some food"



Not a problem, I decided on gray for the background, safe and comfortable.

Retrospectively I wished I'd have gone with the

 bubbly yellow and black on the top of the pile.

Ah well I have 5 yards of gray so that will have to do.

Eldest son came with me pointing out every ugly fabric ever made

and suggesting hideous things that I should make him from them.

He also wants me to make a quilt that is as soft as the shreds of one

 his gramma made when he was a baby.

If only fabric came as soft as it becomes after years and years of washing.
