I think I love any solution that involves a necessary trip to a fabric store. The fact that you found that other yellow means there might be enough to make throw pillows. :-)Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02568944733073812787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-4730231041245801412011-07-20T19:50:08.205-06:002011-07-20T19:50:08.205-06:00Of course you found the fabric after you added to ...Of course you found the fabric after you added to the blocks.
