So I guess I love sewing now... (A Fabric Round Up)
If you couldn't tell, I'm really into sewing now. I'm still pretty terrible at it but I absolutely love doing it! After work I run, shower, eat dinner and then move to my craft room for an hour. If I can get a full hour in to work on my sewing, I'm ecstatic (Most of that hour is usually unpicking seams that I sewed wrong- oops!) Because of my new found love I'm constantly trolling for awesome fabric. Here are some of my most recent favorites.
Lately I've been obsessed with African Fabrics. I absolutely love the wax print variety, and love the color of this print. Can you just imagine a maxi dress in this? TO DIE FOR.
Of course CATS! I love this print and I think it would be perfect for a tote bag! Or, maybe a bowtie to be worn by one of my cats.
Yes that is buffalo chicken wing fabric and yes, I love this. I actually have big plans for this print in the future. (and it is not an apron...).
I'm totally bummed because I wanted to by this print so bad but it's out of stock. I'm tempted to stalk the internet to find this pattern somewhere else. It's SO PERFECT for me. It has SPACE CATS. Are any of you internet sleuths able to take on this challenge? It's a Michael Miller if that helps.
This fox fabric is just lovely. I love the mix of pastels. This would make an adorable bubble skirt!

ReplyDeleteIf you're ever looking for something, all you need to do is copy the pictures URL, go to Google, click on Images, where you're supposed to type what you're looking for you'll see a little camera icon to the right, click on it and enter the URL. This will allow you to search for that picture online, it takes a second and is also great for finding original sources to pictures :)

Oh man you ARE THE BEST. And this is totally great advice.
DeleteI have that linked bookmark for when I need some new fabric. Perhaps a Judy Jetson style dress?
I'm crazy, crazy for that first African print, and a skirt made out of buffalo wings? DO IT. You totally have to do that. I hope you follow through with your space cat dreams now that the previous commenter has sourced the material!!
ReplyDeleteOh, My space cat dreams are SO LARGE! THEY CAN NEVER BE COMPLETE
DeleteI love that fox print. My friends maiden name is fox and she's having a baby next Month so I've become obsessed with pretty pastel fox stuff lately
ReplyDeletePerhaps you can make her something out of this pretty fabric!
DeleteAwww man, i seriously love these fabrics!! A catsallover dress would be amazing. I am kind of the same - I'm not thaaat great at sewing and so I buy all these amazing fabrics but then am too scared to ever do anything with them, haha!
