I stopped at The Pin Cushion to pick up my last Saturday Sampler block pattern the other day, and just had to browse. A little retail therapy is always good, right? One of the things that caught my eye and came home with me was a purple fat quarter.
This month's Rainbow Scrap Challenge color is purple so I guess it was on my mind. But this yummy batik is such a pretty color - more orchid rather than a deep saturated purple. I had to have it. And it made a gorgeous Ohio Star block to add to the collection. It will also appear in at least one of the Gingham blocks for sure.
Can't wait to lay all of these blocks out to see what they are looking like. Maybe after work today I'll have a chance to do that.

I like that purple!
That is a very cool purple!!
Nice design on the fabric! I like how it looks in the star - giving it some movement. Fun
I can see why that fabric had to go home with you. It is lovely.
That is a pretty fabric! It worked really well for the Ohio Star, too!
Indeed lovely fabric; I wouldn't have been able to resist it either!
That FQ made a gorgeous PURPLE block for the RSC, Sara!!
That gorgeous purple certainly made a gorgeous star!
Wow! That was a beautiful Fat Quarter and made a gorgeous Ohio Star block. I can see why it had to come home with you. Retail therapy IS good for the soul!
