More fabric from us...

Here are some more fabrics that we picked up for the quilt. First up are two prints that I thought would be fun...chopsticks and fortune cookies. The fortune cookies have cute sayings, like "Don't be afraid to show your enthusiasm", "The beauty in your heart is there for all to see", and "A mysterious stranger will bring you good news."



The next piece of fabric is in honor of tomorrow's AFC championship game between the Patriots and the Colts. Don't worry, PA readers, I've ordered some fabric with that other football team on it too.


And finally, check out this fabric that is covered in pearls, selected in honor of the name of our blog. While in China, one of the field trips that we'll most likely go on will be to a pearl market, where I plan to buy MANY strands, bangles, earrings, and rings for me and the girls. Apparently, they are a terrific bargain in China. One of the Chinese adoption sites that I follow had several posts about shopping and bargaining in China last week, where people said you can buy a dozen strands of pearls for about $250 TOTAL! The shopoholic in me is salivating for pearls and jade at bargain prices (just don't tell K)!
