Fabric!

my intent was to keep up with this again, but i needed a new flash card because the old one got scratched. anyways, here is some fabric i got from my mom recently. she's been stashing away fabric she would find at garage sales and rummage sales for years. she also hasn't sewed anything for years because her hands can't handle the work anymore. she gave me SO MUCH fabric, i can't keep it all straight! some of it is really old, i'm talking authentic feed sack fabric. most of it are small pieces, basically scraps, but i just ADORE the patterns!


aren't these little mushrooms to die for!? sorry for the poor quality, i took this at night, oh and i suck at taking pictures too. there is a ton more, but i haven't washed and pressed it all yet. i've never made a quilt before, but i must learn!

it's been a while


wow. when was the last time i posted? so much has happened since i last wrote. i got married to my college sweetheart, honeymooned in paris (see picture above) i moved to a great neigborhood, my apartment is about twice as large, my kittens are not so much kittens anymore, and i'm thinking about starting my own etsy shop! i've also been fascinated by the world of softies and plush. i've done a few so far and gave them as christmas presents, but i think that's what i would put in my shop...pictures to be posted at a later time.
so i'm going to start this blog thing again, it's a bore to look at right now. ryan is learning html so maybe he can help me : )
