Like others I am so ENVIOUS! But I did pick up a $3 remnant from a designer's excess shop last week - enough for a skirt.<BR/><BR/>I am also glad to hear that eyelet will still be around, since I didn't get around to making up my brown eyelet this summer. I am ready for autumn sewing now....Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529416439720810403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-69060158810963482042007-03-12T22:39:00.000-04:002007-03-12T22:39:00.000-04:00I love, love, love the brown eyelet as well.

I was just reflecting on how isolated I used to feel. Sitting alone and sewing is a rather singular activity. Now, however, if I need a bit of inspiration or a suggestion for a sewing application or just a laugh, the camaraderie of your wonderful blog postings are just a click away. Reading about your fabric shopping trips (cmaries' in nyc, mardels' in tucson and so forth) makes me feel like I'm right there with you, and I am, in spirit.The internet is a truly marvelous thing, isn't it? So again, thanks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-73170458253879923492007-03-10T19:01:00.000-05:002007-03-10T19:01:00.000-05:00I like the dots with the embroidered border very m...I like the dots with the embroidered border very much!!

I was in there this week, and Carolyn, who works there, said "do you know how much this would be a EFF?" I replied, Yes, I teach there" and she said, "I know, I recognize you" - boy did I feel stupid. But anyway, the sheer amount of fabric they have is extraordinary. What pieces are you looking at? I have to go back Monday to pick up the chiffon for the maternity formal I'm making for a client. I'll check out in person what you're looking at and let you know if they're as fab in real life as on the net.Marjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08695305834402487163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-9581730086566108132007-03-10T16:15:00.000-05:002007-03-10T16:15:00.000-05:00You guys know that you can call Kashi and he will ...You guys know that you can call Kashi and he will send you any fabric that you see here!
