Cutting floral fabrics

Before my art quilters group came yesterday one of my jobs was to cut floral fabric into 2.5" wide strips, requested by one of the ladies. While I was cutting I cut some extra kits which I will list on my Wandaful Quilts site on Wednesday. I have to work at the store today so I won't have time to do it. I have 2 different kits, each with 41 fabrics so it is like a jelly roll of fabric that a lot of people have been buying. The top kit starts with very light fabrics with white backgrounds and has the brighter prints in it. The one below starts with light fabrics with cream color backgrounds.
I'm off to get my hair cut this morning, then home and shower and then go to work. One more day with the temperature in the 20's. The heat wave starts Wednesday, three days in the 30's.

Fabulous strips! Doesn't 20 degrees feel warm in comparison to last weeks temps?

Oh my goodness ~ is this the fabric you and I e-mailed about? Be still my heart...

My guess is those Wanda Rolls will be gone in a flash!

We had snow here this morning ~ it actually stuck and accumulated to almost 1/2" before beginning to melt away again. SO pretty while it lasted!

Even presenting those beautiful 'fans of florals' is a delightful photo.
