Quilt on the way

Yesterday when I was in Payson, AZ I found the cutest quilt shop called "Quilting Sisters".  I had a project in mind and was looking for at least 27 different fat quarters.  I had no more than walked in the door when a stack of 30 Moda (mostly) fat quarters jumped out at me and said "buy us".  My wonderful husband immediately walked to the cash register and whipped out his credit card - what a dear.  Maybe he wanted to get me out of the store because he was afraid I would talk him into the $11,000.00 sewing/embroidery machine.
"Fandango" is the collection by Kate Spain.  Moda fabrics are my choice of fabrics to work with, their designs and colors seem to match my personality and projects.
If you find yourself in Payson and love fabric I suggest stopping Quilting Sisters.

My show and tell

I had some "fat quarters" in my stash of fabric and I wanted to use them. I also have a quilt book titled "Totally Tubular Quilts" that I had never explored. So I said to myself, "This is a good time to experiment with this book and to use those fat quarters." .

I decided to make a table runner and use the chevron pattern. If you zoom in on the picture you can see all of the different pieces in the design even though some of look like one. Please don't look too closely at my piecing, it wasn't until I was almost finished that I realized the secret of matching the seams and I WAS NOT taking the whole thing apart.
