I fall in love with fabrics. I could spend hours in a good fabric shop. While running an errand with a friend a few weeks ago I saw a fabulous orange and white print of animals that I thought would be awesome in a baby quilt or on some bibs. I dreamed, literally- in my sleep, about this print, so the next kid free after noon I took a trip back to this shop to get it. To my great dismay they had sold out! - and weren't going to order any more! I honestly felt a little flushed walking out, but made sure to write down the brand and series name in hopes of finding it on line. And...I DID. Not only did I find it on line, but at the quilt shop it was $9/yard and on line it was only $3.59/yard. Shipping was a flat $5, so of coarse I had to buy a few other prints as well. The best part was when it showed up at my house perfectly folded with a bow tied around it and a thank you note for buying it. You are very welcome. In other great news Vogue patterns will be on sale at JoAnn's for only $3.99 on April 30th- May 2nd.
that fabric is adorable. i love it. and i love the online shop. i am coveting a bunch of fabrics already from their store.
ReplyDeletei have that exact animal print in yellow instead of orange! i love it! kelli - if you are looking for cute fabric and can't find anything online, your best bet for actual stores are "quilting" stores versus places like joannes. they will carry a lot more for people looking for something unique. although, i do have a little craft store down the road that i thought would be more on par with a michaels, but their fabric section is actually quite good! happy hunting
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! What is the name of the fabric? I didn't find it on the website. Maybe they are already sold out. :(
ReplyDeleteThey might be sold out. It was Windham brand, Sweet pea collection. There are a few other online quilt shops that sell it as well, even in different colors. Z and S just had the best price.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I love that fabric, too! Great find!
