The story of a fabric addict:
Allow me to introduce myself….
That was a post I shared on Facebook and sadly, it’s all true! You know you’re in good company when you share something so personal and yet everyone in the room understands. When I started to ask friends and fellow designers if there were any secret fabric addict s in the room – everyone raised a hand. So, I thought it would be fun to gather everyone up and try to have an intervention of sorts. A massive de-stash. Really, deep down, I know it’s just an excuse for me to buy more.
But this is only part of the story. You see, I thought it would be easy to sift through all of my fabrics, trims and goodies to create bundles but instead, I found myself so excited to see each piece being unpacked. As I put the bundles together and stepped back to snap a quick photo, I thought to myself, wow, I would buy that. And then it hit me like a ton of bricks, I ALREADY DID!
I think that’s when you know you really have a problem. Are there any graphic artists out there? If so, I need a special stamp or something to let everyone know that I am a Fabric Addict! Maybe I should form a card-carrying fabric addict club or something. I am sure I can round up some friends to join me.
So, the album is officially open and let the shopping begin! I know that I have my eyes on a few bundles but promised that I would not make any purchases until I sold something. That was the deal with DH and I am determined to hold up my end.
To keep things fun, all week long new listings will be added to the album. Plus, if something has sold and you really love it, leave a comment under the photo. You never know if the designer has more in their stash. I know that I still have plenty left but was just not sure what everyone would like.

I was wondering if you have any cabbage roses/shabby chic fabric in soft yellow, pink or blues or with white? Want to make a quilt using these prints and don’t have enough collected yet. They seem to be hard to find. thanks, Ruth

I have a bunch of white ground vintage sheets with smaller flowers. Nothing large in my collection. Keep your eyes peeled you never know when you will stumble across them.
