If you've read my blog for a while, you'll know that I frequently complain about how expensive fabric is here... Compared to the US, prices are ridiculous! For this reason I spent 3 (!!!) hours in a boiling car today, just to visit my favorite discount fabric store. And it was SO worth it! :-)
Look at those lovely colors! I found lots of nice solids, stripes, gingham and polka dots today, but also som fun prints. These cute mushrooms, for example:
Unfortunately I didn't have enough money to get yards and yards of each print (who has these days?) so now I'm looking for fun and usaful projects that use a half yard or less... Any ideas would be appreciated!
Last but not least: Owl buttons, anyone?
the owl buttons are super cute! and wow! that toadstool fabric is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThe fabric and buttons are adorable! It's also hard getting fabric here on Guam. :(
ReplyDeleteHej Karin, vilken fin och inspirerande blogg DU har!

Do you read Rashida's I Heart Linen blog? She has a wonderful knack for combining small amounts of colourful printed fabric with plain linen to create all sorts of prettiness. Something like that would probably eek out your precious finds a bit further! Pics on her Flickr stream here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/iheartlinen/sets/72157600422729349/
ReplyDeleteHope it helps, and will look forward to seeing what you come up with. :-)
