(Another) retail confession

Quilter Going Bananas suggested I should 'fess up on my purchases on our quilting trip last week. I feel Mum & I were reasonably self-restrained, despite the considerable temptations! We bought these fabrics ('Flea Market Fancy' by Denyse Schmidt & 'Summer in the City' by Urban Chiks)...
... to make up this pattern ('Candy' by Melly & Me) ...
... some 'Freshcut' by Heather Bailey, just because (!) ...
... a layer-cake-friendly 'Figgy Pudding' pattern by Figtree Quilts ...
... and a couple of fat quarters to add to my Dear Jane stash. These are from a beautiful new Moda reproduction range called 'Collection for a Cause'.
Weren't we well-behaved?!
