no trip to dc ever happens without a requisite trip to gstreet fabrics, the greatest fabric store in the world! i scored some awesome fabrics of course... no shocker there. here we have some yellow stretchy rayon jersey with purple and navy squares and a quirky blue zigzag border (maxi dress? short summer dress? we shall see!), black polyester chiffon with colorful dot clusters (drapey summer blouse? if i had more, i would totally want to make a flowy short summer dress. not sure that 1 yd is enough fabric to cover enough skin to be called a dress, though!!),
navy, cream, and magenta striped satiny something-or-other. it is thin. not sure what the material really is though. i'm thinking a shirt-dress variation? the orange is a cotton blend tweed (it's less than a yard, but i think i can squeeze out a pencil skirt!). and finally, the navy is this cotton jersey knit that i plan to use as a lining for this embroidered wool that carin from work gave me! see, i'm a good shopper... i only purchase what i know i will use... if i had all the time in the world hehehhehe!a fabric shopping success! the fam and i biked throughout rock creek park on saturday. it was pretty out, although my allergies started getting the best of me. the drive back was also particularly long... holiday traffic. no worries, as i got to travel with the cutest easter bunny in my lap!
