fabric stash runneth over

Wow! too bad my memory's gotten so lame, or i'd have remembered what a lovely stash of quilting fabric i've accumulated... and would have gotten back to it sooner. Have been thinking lately about finishing a quilt i just barely started a couple of years ago for Zylie. So having grown exceedingly tired of the ongoing chore of reorganizing my office room (dear goddess, where on earth did all these papers come from???) - today i pulled out the fabric, cleared off the work table and started pawing thru all this bounty. Now i remember why i was stumped with Zylie's quilt, and figured out a way to remedy that. The fabric is Moda in soft cotton/flannel and looks a lot like this. http://www.connectingthreads.com/books/books_display.aspx?itemid=991077

but the figures on mine are the elephant with the bird on its back, the mouse-looking creature in a tutu and the jack-in-a-box, and has some narrower strips with different designs in them. Also have some fabric in the same colors which has same
figures, but very small and scattered on a background of cream or light purple. will take pictures somewhere along the way. And i'm working with my muse on a design for a quilt for Alex. He has totally outgrown the baby quilt i made for him, though he does still sleep with it (aawwww), so it's time for a new one.
