While I was away some goodies came in the mail.
This pile is from Superbuzzy. I couldn’t resist these sweet floral stripes (obviously) – they scream summer dresses for the girls. And the pears? Well, they are green and I have a thing for green.
Lots of Denyse Schmidt Flea Market Fancy and some Alexander Henry prints – these came in the box from Purl Patchwork. I like pink, too, you know. As if you didn’t guess…
An update on my jacket….thanks to all your encouragement and tips (you guys rock!), I managed to do the bust adjustment. I added 3 inches to the length of the jacket also. Something happened to the sleeves, though, so I am still working on those. My instructor fitted it and we are adding to the hips and more to the length. Muslin version number 2 is finished and hopefully by Monday, version 3 will be done and will not need any more adjustments. I feel like the little engine…I think I can, I think I can, I think I can….
I’m totally drooling over your fabrics. I’m having fabric withdrawl! I think it’s time I cheat on my diet š
Good luck on that jacket, yes you CAN!

Oh, wow – those are the SWEETEST fabrics. They will make adorable dresses, I’m sure. I’m so impressed with you and this jacket. I would have thrown in the towel back at version number 1. I know you can, I know you can!
I love all the fabrics. The pear fabric from SupperBuzzy has been calling my name for a while, so far I have resisted. However, seeing how lovely it looks in your stash I might just have to order some!
beeeauuuutiful fabrics – love the pears esp….
I want to crawl right into that stash! It all looks soooo beautiful!
oh yes, i’m loving all that fabric! espeically those pears!! wow.
I bought some of those pears, too — my first superbuzzy order.
Jackets have always seemed like the ultimate in difficulty. That and pants. Good luck with finishing the jacket!
Don’t you just love getting stuff in the mail? Looks like you got some really beautiful fabric!
