Let me take a step back and explain. I have been a school teacher for almost 15 years. I started later in life, and so am looking at retiring soon. This fabric venture is something I have always dreamed of and only recently decided that it would be the next chapter in my life once I retire. Well, I just couldn't wait. While I don't really have the time to devote 100%, I can "do what I can" as the quote above so realistically states. I can still give 100% of what time I have after my day job. I am full of energy, creativity, inspiration, and love adventure. This is just another adventure that I hope you will join me on.
I have somewhat decided to start with precuts and just got my first batch of "charm squares" delivered to my doorstep yesterday (Friday). Here is a sampling of some of them:
I absolutely love the "Goldilocks" fabric collection and can see myself making numerous projects with this line. I am already planning a sweet gift of the "Goldilocks" book and lap quilt or dress for someone special in my family. You can find further inspiration with this fabric line at Fabric Mutt who has sewn up some really cute pieces as part of the Blog Hop. Although this line is my current favorite, here are some other precuts that are in the shop:
This "Vintage Made Modern" has some great possibilities as well. So many possibilities with this one!
Please visit my shop at: Darlene's Fabric Shop and add me to your list of "favorites". I thought that I might be adding fabrics daily, but that was a daunting dream of mine. Weekly additions are more realistic. Stay tuned...
Happy Sewing,
Darlene
