I actually bumped into your blog while searching for new online fabric sources. I completely understand that feeling when you got your box from Fabric Mart. I'm anxiously awaiting mine as I type this. Of course, I was all ready to start diving into the world of working with slinky and 4-way stretch fabrics when I realized that I had forogetten to get some clear elastic. Lo and behold, after ordering fabric from FabricMart, Vogue Fabrics and Hancocks, I finally made my way to Lucy's Fabrics for my elastic!! Thanks for sharing your love of sewing!!<BR/><BR/>A kindred spirit. <BR/><BR/>Christy, Brandon, FloridaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-13723400986390343152007-03-04T18:03:00.000-05:002007-03-04T18:03:00.000-05:00Carolyn --Just wanted to add my voice to many that...Carolyn --<BR/>Just wanted to add my voice to many that I find your blog totally inspiring. Full of fantastic information, tips on workmanship, and motivation of course, but the value you place on sewing makes me feel I must be okay too to enjoy sewing, and sometimes to prefer sewing to anything else. There is even a chance that you have more fabric than I do (though I've recently taken up quilting as well, and that produces a real bulk problem in storing the stash). It's gratifyijng that I can read your blog, but I'm envious of those who live nearer New York who can actually go to Kashi's and the garment district with you!
