Fabric

I haven’t done a post that featured fabrics for a while. If you’re looking for some new patterns for your designs, check out Duckcloth in Australia. I think these are pretty great:

Fruits are good for you

Since I haven’t done a post in a while about fabric, I thought it was about time. Repro Depot has a number of fruit prints on their site and they sure look yummy. Just think of what you could make with these. I think they might be quite fun in a kitchen hanging over some bright windows.

If only I could Sew…

Boy are there a bunch of great fabrics out there! I wish that I knew how to sew. Oh the things you could do with all of those patterns.

Repro Depot has an amazing selection of fabrics and these were just too cute! The Heather Ross Collection can really spark your imagination and the possibilities on what you’ll create are endless. I think they’d be cute just framed and put on the wall.

Bicycles, goldfish, mushrooms, gnomes…and you know I couldn’t pass up the polka dots and stripes!

Now to sign up for some sewing classes…
