I Couldn't Resist...

I saw the new Bent Creek zipper - The Big Zipper - when it was released last week. My first thought was "Wow! Way too much money for a kit. Especially, a Zipper kit. But, after a couple days of thinking about it. I realized that I really liked the design, no wait, I loved the design. So, I ordered it. It arrived yesterday. It does have a huge piece of fabric, but I really thought that for the price that all of the threads would be full skeins. There were only 3 full skeins in the kit, which are the 2 main colors of the border.

I'm not upset that I bought it. I really do love the design, but next time, I think I'll wait and see what the "missing pieces" - zippers - that fill in the empty spots look like first.

I'd planned on this being my summer travel project, (Zipper are great travel projects) but after getting the huge piece of fabric out, I can see that probably isn't going to happen. I don't know if I'll be able to stitch on that big of a piece of fabric, while riding in the truck.

I'm anxious to start this piece, but I want to stitch the 3 projects that are my May goals first. So, I better get busy stitching!!!
