Comfort.
Lately, this brings me great comfort and joy! I have only recently begun collecting fabric for my fabric projects but it is quickly becoming one of my new favorite things. I love digging through bins of fabric remnants and frequenting the few thrift stores in town for new pieces. Maisey loves to play with them too and turns piles of fabrics into pillows and blankets for herself and her dollies. These are my new favorites from a quilt shop in town:
Aren't they wonderful!!! My favorites are the teacup, pink, and red/blue/yellow plaid (is that what you call it?). Just gazing at these beauties is fun, but so is planning projects...and I'll have some new pictures up soon inspired by some of the amazingly talented ladies in blogland. Find out what brings comfort to other artists here.
Oh. I love the vintage look of those.. I see my mother or grandmother making donuts.. now THAT is comfort!
Excellent collection!

What fun fabrics! I wish I was more creative with fabric than I am...

Eeeeeee! These are brilliant! I don't do much sewing but I am so tempted to go to a fabric shop and buy a bunch of assorted squares just to put them on a shelf or in a basket...and just gaze at them! LOVE it! Have you been to www.rosielittlethings.typepad.com? So comforting! :-)

Paper or fabric-why make a choice? Use both every chance you get-now that's a comforting thought!

Fabric is one of my passions (obsessions?). So much fun to take it out, look at it, touch it......you've got a great collection here!
