Shopping for fabric online is the most dangerous thing. In particular, I think, because I go on little mini-binges, and the fabric doesn’t instantly pile up on my table as any kind of barometer or deterrent. Alas, it sure is fun to get the packages in the mail, even if I feel a teeny bit guilty…
This layer cake and three charm packs are from Fabric Shack, which has a pretty mediocre website interface but a large selection of lovely fabrics and good service. The Aviary isn’t exactly my usual cup of tea, but I think it will go really nicely with my in-laws’ decor, and they don’t yet have a quilt from me. One of the charm packs will likely be a gift, the other two may become an awfully pretty baby quilt, maybe another stacked coin? Just need at least one of my pregnant friends to have a girl…
This big pile is from one of my favorite Etsy sellers, rainbow fabrics. Super speedy service and shipping, very responsive on custom yardage. A few pieces have an intended purpose, the rest are just want want want. It’s a sickness, isn’t it?
These two lovely Flea Market Fancy fat quarters are actually just a very lucky giveaway win from the delightful 2nd Avenue Studio. Thank you, Rachel!
And this motherlode is from another favorite Etsy seller, A Fabric Outlet. That’s right, it’s 18 FQs of Far, Far Away. Ooooh. Sooo pretty. I have no idea what I’m going to do with them, but I’m thinking a very special big-girl quilt for my daughter. Maybe for her 3rd birthday? (She turns two next week, so I have time…)

Lovely fabrics! I used some of the ones you got at Rainbow Fabrics in a bag I made recently (it’s a couple of posts back on my blog).
