I admit it. I am addicted. To fabric. Like most quilters, doll clothes makers, and even many dressmakers, I see a piece of fabric that I really like, and buy it. Sometimes I buy complementary fabrics at the same time. Sometimes I just know that the right companion pieces will come along. Sometimes they do. Sometimes the fabric sits in my stash for a very long time.
In one notable case, I bought a piece of fabric to make myself a dress. After some time in my stash, Ray nagged me into making him a shirt. He wore that shirt to death, but every time he put it on I mourned for the dress that I now would never have ....
When the chance to win free fabric came up, I couldn't resist. If you are inspired by color, pattern, design, fabric, take a jaunt to From Little Things and check out Sarah's new fabric give-away.
Don't you love the names of her books? Material Obessions and Material Obsessions Two.
I checked. The books are available at Amazon.com. But the covers on the American editions are B-O-R-I-N-G. How come the Brits get the really fun photographs, as we get the boring stuff??? You can see the UK covers by scrolling down just a bit on the From Little Things link.
Have fun! Don't forget to pray ....
I'm addicted to yarn, lots and lots of yarn!
