fabric friday: the end of "in the beginning"
As most of you Seattlites know, "In the Beginning" one of the greatest fabric stores around, is closing their doors on April 8. As a birthday present to myself, I went shopping at the big clearance sale. I made an effort to stay away from greens (I've got too much), and picked things that I hadn't seen at the web shops or other stores. I got half a yard of everything here - too much for one picture, so they are sorted loosely by color. The last picture is a couple of sets of fat quarters, so there were some unavoidable greens. It makes me happy just looking at this fabric and thinking up things to make! Here's a bonus munki munki fabric from Reprodepot - I love this fabric so much I'm going to design something around it! I don't know....a quilt, maybe? Pillowcases? Something with a "Team Zissou" vibe? I'm thinkin' about it. Have a great weekend everyone!

I love the octopus in that watery themed fabric - would make a good dreaming space.

Wow! I mean, wow! Was there any fabric left at the store after this purchase? Thanks for sharing, can't wait to see what these become.

I don't even sew and I sort of slipped yesterday and went back for another large batch. One day I will make a quilt. Or something :)
I am glad that I got some of the kimono silk before it was completely gone a couple of weeks ago.
And I went to the yarn store. More oops. :)
