On a different note, long-suffering hubby
took me on an excursion to Fabricland
yesterday
and I enhanced my stash with all of this...
The four fabrics on the left will be turned into jacket linings. The bit of white to the right is three different types of iron-on interfacing, for various projects in the works.
The gorgeous orange (also on the right) complete with sequins is probably going to turn into a bag lining (or two.

Above is a hodge-podge of 'stuff'.
There's some thread (again earmarked for jackets),
a bunch of zippers - some for bags, some for jackets,
some nylon tape for making purse handles,

and finally, this came in the mail from StudioKat...
I can't wait to make this bag and have had my finger poised over the 'order' button ever since I
saw the prototype being developed on her site.
The flap of this bag is crying to be made in so many different ways, but
I'm anxious to give it a crazy quilt look and hopefully combine
it with some of my recycled denim too. Some of the above stash
is for creating one of these!

ReplyDeleteHi I noticed when you commented on suztats blog instead of a photo you have that black and white thing. I have that too I wonder if anyone know how to change it to a different picture.
ReplyDeleteBy the way have a new blog.
I will have to tell my daughter she gets a shopping trip the day they close which is Oct. 11 - hopefully.
ReplyDeleteShe is worn out running back and forth keeping 2 houses and 3 active boys hauled around.
I was over at JoAnnes today looking for lining for the bag I am making for the auction and picked a black with small polka dots. should be interesting.
Your little chickadee is very sweet.
Hugs
