Stupid Joanns. Why can't we have a decent fabric store somewhere close by? Why is it that the only easily accessible store to me sucks so hard? Needless to say, I didn't get what I needed. I bought some sashing fabric, and some backing fabric. I even took my fabric in with me. The blue sashing? It looked pretty decent in the store. But I got home, and after nursing my stupid jaw, I decided to lay things out to see how it looked. It looks like crap. It looks ok with some squares, but with others, it's a total clash. I thought maybe I could reverse the backing fabric (a tan khaki), but it's just too blah for the front I think. Grr.
So now, what will I do? I guess the quilt is on hold for now, until I can make it to another Joann's. I guess I could order something online, but I'm nervous about that. Though.... I might check out the collection and see if anything catches my eye.
I guess I will start on another project. I've got two or three waiting in the wings.
