How fitting that I published my first weekly post for the Top 10 Tips for New Quilters. This week's subject was Fabric & Thread. And this came in the mail from Fabric Spot the same day!
These are 3 yards of Small Dots in Grey and 2 yards of Small Dots in Aqua, both by Riley Blake Designs. Also, 3 yards of Mixed Bag Houndstooth in Sprouts by Moda.
Today I ordered my Widescreen Crosshatch in Pacific through Mad About Patchwork. And will be just thrilled to be able to get a hold of this wide backing so I can finish up my Giggles UP! quilt.
This top measures 84" x 96". And I will be offering the pattern when it gets finished and photographed!

Ooo, I like the houndstooth. Your quilt is very pretty. I can't wait to see how you quilt it!
I like the colours of your dotty fabrics. The Giggles UP quilt is looking good - so bright and cheerful, it makes me smile.
Lorna hope all is well with you? Love you bright, happy quilt. Thanks for the giveaway links and as always thank you for hosting the linky. Have a great week. Thanks for sharing. Marie (mlismore@optusnet.com.au)
I am a sucker for polka dots. And I love the colors that you received. Your patterns are always so happy and I love the name, "Giggles Up." Thanks for hosting.

Super cute quilt!! Can't wait to see it finished!
Giggles UP is fantastic! It would look great in so many different colour schemes.
Good morning! Yay for Wednesday! Love the Giggle UP quilt. There is something really striking about the smaller white borders in between each of the thicker color pieces. It really catches your eye. Love it! I'll have to check out the new quilter posts. I may have a few quilts under my belt but I still consider myself a beginner!
I wonder how you are going to quilt it. It's looks great in those happy colours.

I just love that giggles quilt. I have never used the wide backing...well I have never quilted a quilt that big before to require wide backing..haha. I am looking forward to a finish.
Love the white strips in those blocks. Adds a great new design piece to a common block. Fun quilt!
I absolutely adore your Giggles UP! quilt! It's so bright and colorful!
I love the fabric you just got. The houndstooth is delicious!! I forgot just how wonderful your 'Giggles" quilt is.
Great quilt Lorna! And any time I receive fabric in the mail is a great day- Fabric Spot is one of my favourites!
What great new acquisitions! Giggles is such a bright happy quilt, it's excellent to see it again. Do you know how you're going to quilt it?
I like your Giggles UP more each time I see it. Great job; happy quilt.
