Yesterday a few friends from my guild and I hopped on the ferry to Bainbridge Island for a trip to Pink Chalk Fabrics!!! They don't have a store front, but we were able to visit, do some shopping, see Kathy's FABULOUS space and dig through some amazing scraps! I was in solids heaven - I wish I got a picture, but I just stared endlessly at a wall of konas and free spirit designer solids. YUM! I love to support a local shop - so I did what I had to do... :) This yellow print from Aviary 2 is gorgeous, and I got some kona stone, buttercup, charcoal, cerise, berry and slate to go with.
And I got to take home these scraps I got from the solids pile.
No this pile is not all the new fabric I bought this week (although that does take up a considerable portion of it) but this is what I'm calling the "overstock" (i.e. fabric that will not fit in my drawers. Better get sewing! :)
And lastly a BIG thanks to Kathy for hosting our group. We all had a great time!
Completely jealous.
ReplyDeleteYou made some really great choices. I have heard a lot of great things about Free Spirit solids - haven't used them yet though. I can't wait till my Pips arrive! Just waiting for SewFresh to receive the whole range.
ReplyDeletei'm so sorry I missed it. Just wasn't feeling up to it. We must get our Sherbert Pips on. Maybe a challenge..maybe something for Nadia. Anyway soon enough.
ReplyDeleteWatch out you might have to take over your clothing closet!
