Welcome to Fabric Fun Thursday. In addition to DIY projects, feel free to link up any vintage linens, table linens, fabric bargains, etc.
Fabric Flower Power
This is the thrifty fabric I found last week at Old Time Pottery. (You know sometimes I find tacky stuff there and sometimes I find great stuff.) I got two bundles of five yards each. The per yard price was $3.96. Total for each bundle - less than $20!This yellow might be too bright for some of you, but I'm lovin' it!
I set them side by side to get a look at them, my little bird friend (ain't he cute?) is also weighing in on the decision (I didn't set this shot up - these things were already on the table this way!)
Some cutting is happenin'...
What on earth do you think I should do with it?
Any ideas?

I live in Tampa also. I have the same experience at Old Time Pottery. Sometimes great finds, sometimes not! Love the fabric.
ReplyDeleteI love this post full of inspiration. I decided to leave my sewing machine out on my craft table so I will sew more!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
How FUN! Please sign me up! ~Bridgette
ReplyDeleteGorgeous fabric! I love the patterns. I'm looking forward to checking out your FFT links. I may join in this time with an older post, but I'm thinking up an idea for next time too. Cute giveaway!
ReplyDeleteKim, I'm loving this party concept and you've had a great turnout for your first one. I can think of all kinds of things that I would like to share. Today, in fact, I was working real fast trying to finish something up which I hadn't posted about before, but alas, the day is drawing to a close and my project is still incomplete. Therefore, I linked up several items that I've posted in the past and they seemed to be rather well viewed. Anyway -- LOVE the party. I think your gorgeous fabrics would make such nice chair cushions or pillows, but I have a feeling that you already have something in mind...hmmm. Thank you for hosting today and I'm going to check out the other links!
ReplyDeleteDang! Can't believe I missed this party! Day late and a dollar short! That fabric is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThat color would be great as a cushion on an outdoor glider/love seat or bench cushion. Can't wait to see the finished project!
Love the 4th of July Stars!
ReplyDeleteHi, love your blog! I would love to be entered into your giveaway. Wonderful ideas.
ReplyDeleteI've posted your giveaway button on my blog! I almost forgot to let you know to enter me in the drawing! I love anything red, white and blue during the summer!
ReplyDeleteThose stars are way too cute!
ReplyDeleteThe stars are adorable. Would love to have them for my Americana themed room.
ReplyDeleteLove these stars! They would be perfect in a bowl on my Hoosier Cabinet!
ReplyDeleteI would love these red, white and blue stars! That is the decor in my family room.
ReplyDeleteLove love the fabric!! I actually came across a very similar pattern that was a twin bed sheet that I am turning into a few pillow case dresses for my daughter and a few of her little friends :) Maybe even a skirt for me :)
ReplyDeleteAnyhooooo...I would love love to enter the giveaway :) I have been looking for something to put in a white bowl I just re-did...these stars would be darling :)
Count me in for your giveaway. Those are just too darn cute to pass up! =)
