I just gotta stop looking.... :)
For a few months now I have been looking at a friends blog and seeing all the wonderful things she and the blogs that she has been following have been doing...I kept thinking I need to get back into my sewing room and start creating again...well kept thinking I needed to go through some of my stash before I added anything more........that lasted until I started looking at fabric again and now am adding again............ I just love fabric.
Went on Saturday to a local warehouse to "look" at fabric. It was quite a blustery day and they were afraid that the power would go out so they cautioned me and my friend and a couple of other ladies who were "looking" too that if the power went out to stay where we were and they would come and find us with flashlights :) I told them...no problem...I would just sit there and feel the material until they came and got me :) What is it about the texture and the visual eye candy that brings a sense of well being to me...not to mention the "GOTTA HAVE's"
So this is my purchase from Saturday :) Look at those colors....aren't they just yummy?
Here is the roll from the side instead of the top....lovin these jelly rolls as they are called....
From that store I also got some white fabric and some fabric books...oh and a minkie blanket....so yummy to touch...but it isn't for me so :(
Then my husband asked if there was some place I wanted to go later that day......... :) (make that a really big smiley face!) I was wanted to go to the other fabric store in town and get some "sale" fabric...but instead I got this.........aren't the colors wonderful???
And then today........well........what can I say...I am obsessed with sale fabric :)
These came in the mail...I had to wait a bit longer for them to be shipped because the ladies from the store were on a quilt retreat...but worth the wait ;)
Can you imagine they fit all this stuff in one box :)
These two rolls were just darn cheap :) They match the turnover triangles above....hum...wonder what I am going to do with them????
and more color.........maybe I won't do anything with these just enjoy the color.........
side view of the above jelly roll
and last but not least.......more of the Oasis fabric that I did a table topper for my table....just love these colors...
Whew.......think I need to sit down and maybe will shop with my fingers some more :) There is another sale going on that I might have to check out ;)
