These are pale teal, not turquoise.
This moring was Busy Bee Quilt Shop's annual Pajama Day Sale. I'm pretty sure that there is evidence to indicate I can't blame them--since I'd even taken the time to stop by the shop yesterday to see if they had some fabrics to go with a project I'm planning and for which I already have the other fabrics. I had to go get some blood drawn and the shop is very close to the lab.
The subtle prints did not photograph accurately either.
However, I did not see the Asian fabric until this morning.
Pre-shopping was a great idea since I knew exactly where to go to grab bolts. Yesterday the owner told me a lady had come in and taken all kinds of photos to help her when she returned today.
They had two cutting tables going, and I arrived just a few minutes after eight, so the shopping experience went fairly quickly despite the number of customers.
Now, seeing these together, I may have to use something else for the planned quilt and combine these in a new quilt so they can live happily together. We'll see.
I need to launder and iron them, and put in some time in my sewing room to get some clutter organized so I can actually sew.
We're having a very windy day, and as I sit here, I'm watching one of the cats my neighbor feeds sitting statue-like on the wall, undoubtedly hoping to convince any bird seeking shelter from the wind that he's totally harmless. I hope he fails!
(Day 10 is not, so far, the worst day, and I'm glad the oncologist was wrong about that. I just wish I had more energy and endrance.)
Happy quiltmaking and knitting,

Very very pretty fabrics! I figured you were going to say you ordered fabric because it was a Pajama Day Sale, as in stay home in your jammies and buy fabric online. Good that you got out though and were able to combine the blood draw with a shopping trip!
Pretty fabrics!
