Just a bit of fabric for a Monday...

I was doing a little shopping at one of my sponsors the other day.  And today a lovely package of fabric goodness arrived from the Fabric Spot.    I was experiencing some buyer's regret after my Oregon trip to Sisters.  I did not get any of the Mustang Canvas when I was fabric shopping so I had to fix that and Fabric Spot has a whole lot of Cotton and Steel going on.  I love that Mustang print!  I also picked out a few other Cotton and Steel  fat quarters including Hatbox Tiger Stripes in Orange, and Homebody Button Jar in Aqua.  I selected some more Kona Parchment as it goes so nicely with linen.  I was surprised by the scale of the Button Jar.  Just so you know, the buttons are big and with lots of negative space.  I had this idea the buttons would be smaller.  It is lovely though.  I also had to get a metre of Fox Field Vintage Stars because it is beautiful.    There you have it.  Fabric happiness.

Fabric Enabler...

I have to say that I have a thing for Suzuko Koseki fabric for Yuwa.  It is not something we see a lot of in Canada but thanks to Rita at Red Pepper Quilts, I have found Miss Matatabi fabrics on Etsy.  Frances has a lovely selection of Yuwa fabrics and her prices are very reasonable.  I thought I would share that little bit of fabric goodness as I just recently received a nice little package all the way from Japan.

And then take a look at this little piece of awesomeness.  My buddy Cynthia has a new fabric line with Robert Kaufman called Sewing Studio.  I love this and cannot wait to find it in a fabric store!!!  Take a look!
And Cynthia has giveaways all this week over at her blog.  Just saying!  And it involves fabric!!!!

More fabric news... one of my sponsors, the lovely Karen at Fabric Spot has all sorts of Cotton and Steel.  You have to go have a look.  Love it! Here and here and here... and here and here.  Did I get it all?

Warning: Beautiful fabric alert

I ordered some lovelies from  Fabricspot.  Oh, yes I did.  I have to say that the Anna Maria Horner echinacea print had to be seen to be fully appreciated.  The colours are intense and vibrant.  So gorgeous.  I am going to have to pick up more of this line.  Then there is the low volume text print from the Littlest line called Heartfelt Snow.  And Denyse Schmidt's Chicopee paislye in lime and red.  I think I may have scooped the last of the Chicopee in lime.  Sorry.  I really like it so I don't feel too guilty.

And what about the glasses?  So darn funky.  Fox and Houndstooth glasses and 2 fat quarters of Junk Drawer from Cosmo Cricket.  Classic.

There you have it... my picks from a recent little shopping trip online at Fabricspot.  Check it out.

I am a fabric enabler... fair warning!

1.  I just so happened to be in touch with someone through our quilt guild who wanted to get rid of some Katie Jump Rope... eeek!  So I helped her with that.  Couldn't let her be stuck with these, could I?

2.  At our quilting coffee meet up, I just happened to mention that I had added to my stock of Timeless Treasures black and white striped binding fabric and before anyone could say, "Bob's your uncle."  A group order was being placed for that very thing.

3.  And just in case you need to fix your fabric stash, Fabric Spot has a surprise sale going on from now until midnight Friday, June 6 EST.  20% off the fabric goodness excluding sale items, clearance, pre-cuts and gift cards.  1/2 yard minimums.  Have some fun people!
