I have been contemplating a baby quilt I need to make next week for a colleague whose wife just had a baby.
My fortune in my cookie was: Don't let what you DON'T have prevent you from using what you DO have.
Guess they'll get a quilt from my stash fabrics.

Linda, I had a lot of fun doing this for my mother earlier this year. Money is very tight at the moment and I really wanted to make her a quilt for her birthday - her last as it turned out. I had a healthy stash to work with, but not being able to go buy that particluar piece of fabric and making do with what I had was a bit of a challenge. I'm currently doing it again for my brother and his wife who are moving to the States (from Australia) in 9 weeks. I will have to buy batting and backing this time. But just planning what you can make with what you have is fun :-)
