Hand Dyed Fabrics

Updated Fabric Stash


I promised someone that I would do an updated post of my hand dyed fabric stash. So Diya, this is especially for you 🙂

Here are all of my beauties from Hand Dyed Fabrics By Stephanie.  She is my favorite dyer and I love collecting her FOTM every month.  Several of her fabrics are on scroll frames being stitched on.  They are all so beautiful.

This is a smaller pile of prettiest.   There are fabrics here from Polstitches, Picture This Plus, Sunny Dyes Fabrics and Under The Sea Fabrics.  All are also very pretty.

Seeing the fabrics standing was a much better way of organizing them, rather than having them stacked, which is how I had them before I pulled them out to do this post.  So I have put them back into my trunk so that I can see them all at a glance.  How pretty!  And now it will be much easier to see what I have when looking for a fabric for a design 🙂

So there you have it.  I guess you could say that I have a bit of a fabric hoarding problem 😉 Oh well.  I could do worse things.  Fabric and color make me happy.  What is in your favorite stash?

New Start – Moon Flowers


WIN_20150321_093052

Last night I started a new project; Moon Flowers by Mirabilia.  I am stitching her on 16ct Aida Black Magic by Under the Sea fabrics.  This fabric turned out exactly how I envisioned it for Moon Flowers.  I am typically not a dark fabric kind of gal, but when I first saw Moon Flowers, I knew Black Magic would be the perfect fabric.  And Leslie didn’t disappoint.  I am so excited to start stitching on this one.  What new project are you looking forward to getting started on?
