Vintage Fabric Finds!


I have had a lot of fun finding fabrics lately! A visit to a local Antique Mall as well as to downtown flea markets  turned up many cute prints...
 This purple flowery print is probably my favorite.


I just love to stare at these delish fabrics:)

Scored some upholstery fabric swatches for $1.99!!!!

Imported fabric swatches for a dollar and ninety-nine per book at a local Goodwill store. Yup! You heard that right. I was ecstatic! It was a definite home run after weeks of scouting quality fabrics on a budget. These fabrics have really gorgeous and vibrant colors and most of them are about 12 x 14, big enough to make doll dresses. I can't wait to start sewing!

My Craft Room

 I love to create things in the wee hours of night and realize it is not a great idea in the morning :) 
Art is my portal to another place that is always happy and calm. When I make things, I  go to a place where everything is possible, people are always nice, dreams come true, animals are your friends and unicorns are real. Creating helps me to keep myself together in a crazy world that spins faster than my head. It keeps me away from ideas I can scarcely fathom, the sad and the ugly...
