A new bedspread

The bedspread in the master is ... old. And while it doesn't _clash_ with the new colors, the pattern is far from exciting. So as we were debating what to do about replacing it, I got to looking at some fabrics.

_That_ was too cool to pass up. Dunno how long that link will work, but it arrived in the mail today and I could not be happier. The downside is, I was only able to get 6 yards. The upside is, the colors were _exactly_ right (always a risk ordering online) and we both love the pattern and it looks great in the room.

So we have enough to do a quilt top. We could have it made up as one half of a duvet cover, alternatively. Not sure which way we'll go. And of course we'll have to figure out whether this is going to be something we hire done or we do ourselves (the project is certainly within R.'s capabilities and possibly even within mine).
