I do agree that it seems to be a contagious thing! I think there were 6 babies born in my family (including cousins) in the last year! We've also had a bunch of friends having babies... so there are just babies everywhere!
Ok, I am excited.... I have a BUNCH of new fabric AND a new toy! DH drug me out and about yesterday afternoon even though I was sick. We stopped to get some fabric for Arabookworm's block and DH decided I needed one of
these ! It's kind of funny because I had mentioned before that I wished that they made something like that. It seems like no matter how careful I am with my rotary cutter and ruler, I manage to let the ruler slide a bit or something and my cuts end up off a bit. I told him forever ago that I wanted something kind of like my paper cutter for cutting fabric and he spotted that rotary ruler! I seriously had never noticed one before! I have been using it and I LOVE it!
My fabric I ordered from Quilt in a Day showed up yesterday, too. So, I thought I would share all my pretty new fabric with everyone.
This is almost all of the fabric I got in the last 2 weeks (sitting on my ironing board that folds out of the wall... I love that thing and will miss it when we move).
Here's a little closer look-
This is from Fabric.com... I bought some different fabrics I thought I might like to use in our wedding quilt (I have some other fabric I bought somewhere else for it, too, but forgot to put it in the picture. You'll notice this is the only pile that I hadn't gotten ironed yet when I took the picture!

DH's grandma loves green, so I wanted to have some options when I start on her quilt.
I forgot to take a picture of the fabric I bought for Arabookworm's block. I guess you'll just see it when I get her block done!
Ok, back to the sewing machine!
