The scoop is this: my pile o’ fabrics is shrinking down. That is a good thing, I suppose. Like any cherished fabric, having the “stash” be reduced to scraps can be a tug on the ol’ heart strings. If you cannot relate to this, just compare the sentiment to having the very best meal served to you and, after enjoying bite after delicious bite, there remains one last fork full – one last bite and…no more delicious meal. All that is left are memories.
So how has the “stash” been used? Well, some went into making up pennant banners. Isn’t the cupcake fabric perfect for a birthday party?
The sweet girly flowers, plaids, polka dots and paisley were used in the pink banner. I am loving all of the color in the fabrics and decided to go out and buy some colorful flowers to put in my sap bucket.
Delphiniums, daisies, tulips, poppies, carnations and a little butterfly….
…and all from the dollar store. Yes, I said the dollar store. So, for about $15.00 I can have pops of color that will last and last. They go nicely with the little cherry shirt I made. I’ll share about that one and the pattern I used later this week.
Thank you to everyone who left comments on my finished projects post!! You are all so sweet! Creating with fabric is one of my passions and hobbies. It brings joy to my heart to make things that others enjoy. Thank you!
