As a crafting enthusiast it is probably quite fitting that my first non-medical outing since returning home from hospital was to a nearby craft shop. How could I resist a sale with 30% off all fabrics?!
I'll hem the cotton Christmas print to make a festive tablecloth. The cotton drill with vintage seed packet print caught my husband's eye. I'll make a shopping bag or two from it - perfect for trips to the weekend farmers market.
Plain thin blue lawn for use as lining in a summer dress. Pretty butterfly print - I though it would make a lovely lining for a Spring jacket (I'm sure I'll make one at some point..!) Cheerful blue and red soft cotton print to make a long sleeved summer shirt (as a redhead, Australian summers aren't kind to me unless I'm covered up!).
Is it fabric stashing if you have a something in mind for all your purchases?!
What a lovely hoard! I don't think it's stash building, it's project preparation! I like knowing what the fabric will become when I buy it too - a girl with a plan!
ReplyDeleteHappy summer sewing!
Phew, I have converted the Christmas fabric into a tablecloth. One project down, quite a few to go!
DeleteThanks Danielle, you are so kind. My shoulder is slowly, but surely, getting better. Now we just have to get through Tansy's impending leg surgery.
