After I got home, it dawned on me why I liked it so much. I made a quilt for a friend's new baby out of the same line.
Quilter's Station in Lee's Summit, Missouri, was on the list also. Taking a 3 year old was entertaining to everyone in the store, especially since there is an incredible fondness for fabric. The current obsession is with horses, so all I could hear her screaming from one rack of fabric was "Mommy, I MUST have this fabric." How could I refuse? I will use it to make a pillowcase for her bed. Everyone was laughing when this discovery was made.
The last stop was Prairie Point in Shawnee, Kansas, for the end of year sale. This is where some serious damage was done. Jelly rolls are my new favorite thing, which I would say is bordering on an obsession. I really like the Moda Oak & Reel fabric line and since it was on sale, how could I not take it home? Then there was the whole display of Valentine's fabric. Again, I couldn't pass it up. More cheater cloth that I can't seem to live without.

I love jellyrolls too - the one you picked up is beautiful! Can't wait to see what you make from it! :)
I think it might have to be the one that Mary Johnson talks about on her blog (http://maryquilts.blogspot.com/2007/12/boxed-squares.html)
