Apple Pie, Cherries Jubilee & Peas and Carrots!
I was out and about on Friday running errands - the stop and go kind! In and out of the car; dash in and out, etc. I made a quick dash into one of our local quilt stores and purchased one charm pack of Peas and Carrots - it would make an adorable Spring tablecloth for my kitchen table. While I was 
there I caught a glimpse of a bolt or two of Cherries Jubilee - very, very pretty - how did I miss that???? Wait, wait, I thought to myself - I have made a quilt top with Cherries Jubilee - AH, I felt better. So, I pulled out said quilt top and OH NO!!! it's not Cherries Jubilee, it's Apple Pie. Mind you, I love my Grandma's Album and should press it and quilt it very, very soon as it would look lovely in my entry way. It would made a HUGE Spring statement!!!!! So, now I'm beating myself up for missing Cherries Jubilee - how did that happen - where was I? Sadly, I can't find a fat quarter bundle anywhere :-(

I found the charm packs here:

But no bundles....
That is the group I used heavily in my Provence basket quilt top. So pretty. There is a shop here in California called Honey Run that had the group. I will phone them later this morning and see if they have any bundles left.
I bought a yard of the sweet pea fabric at the top your charm pack last week. Not really in my usual comfort zone - but I cannot pass up a sweet pea. So it doesn't languish in the closet, unused and unloved, I'm going to be forced into buy another yard and then make a set of pillow cases. Darn it - I have to buy more fabric.
I found this on a quick google...

Please, please tell me where to get the pattern for that spectacular quilt. I've seen pictures of it in magazines but never found the pattern.
OOOHH, I love the charm pack and do I ever want some of those!
Here's another great source for online quilt fabric/other shopping: www.quiltshops.com
Great charm pack, and love the quilt. I've been out of action, but I scrolled down to see what you've been doing, and you've been busy! Some beautiful Baltimore blocks, and lots of other good things. Sounds like the slump has gone!

I love that Charm Pack. Your quilt is adorable. Where did you get the pattern?
Well, I thought I'd be able to ride to the rescue, but after digging half an hour, I came up with Fruit Cocktail. Okay, okay, it was fruit, right? LOL
Sorry. But I'll keep an eye out for you.
(Hugs)
Email me if you want me to look this weekend. I will be at the Dallas show!

Oh I've been looking at the peas and carrots charm pack for a week now, I think I will have to order it, you are so right, it will make a really nice tablerunner or small tablecloth :)
Great quilt. I will trade the Cherries Jubilee charm pack for the pattern............
So glad you found some!
