Seriously, folks, I could have an addiction to making stuff. Just today, I made a burp cloth - from scratch! You know, the ones with the super awesome soft dotty fabric in the middle? Yeah, I made one in a yummy butter yellow. I now know that you can buy the cloth diaper fabric at Hancock for way less than you can buy the diapers at Babies R Us.
(Note: There won't be a photo of the burp cloth I made today because I did something really dumb and sewed my yummy yellow minky on really crooked That's why there are seam rippers.)
Here's what I'm currently coveting:
- Amy Butler's new Daisy Chain in Basil. Those are my colors!
- Amy Butler's Midwest Modern 2. Okay, I want at least a yard of every single one of these!
- Anything of Heather Bailey's! Dare I say I love her more than Amy these days?! My first apron (as in, the one I did just the other day) was created with the Paisley (Ivory) and Tiled Primrose (blue) fabrics from her Pop Garden line.
- Tanya Whelan's entire Darla line. Have you seen anything so sweet?
It's a really good thing that Jona lives in Arizona and that her fantastic store, Fabritopia, is there too! (It's also a good thing she has a website and ships to San Antonio!) Oh, and she's got the Pop Garden line on sale through the end of the month. Might need to stop by!
The hubbies don't know it yet, but my girlfriend Ashley and I are scheming to do some online fabric shopping here on Saturday and some sewing projects. Between the two of us, they stand no chance! (It's a good thing I got my Wii Fit today!)

Didn't I tell you? It's an addiction, I tell ya! I've only been sewing for about 3 years and I've already amassed a HUGE stash and I keep buying more. I lurve fabric. San Antonio better look out this summer!
Check out Etsy and Sew Mama Sew for fabrics. My crack dealer...I mean favorite seller is going out of business, Fabric Bliss.
Oh yeah, check out Patty Young's line Andalucia. SO yummy! I love it, such saturated color!
