New Fabric and a GREAT new magazine subscription!

Fabric.com has a great coupon code right now!  By using "SNOW2013" you can get 20% off your ENTIRE order (over $40)!  Plus you also get free shipping!! I've been so good lately by not buying fabric that I needed to splurge a little.  We paid off my truck loan today and I just had to celebrate!



I picked up a few great fabrics that I'm super excited about.

Natural Graffiti Butterflies & Flowers Pink Natural Graffiti Butterflies & Flowers  (I think a cute spring top for Miss K)

Riley Blake Happy Ever After Princess Yellow  Riley Blake Happy Ever After Princess Yellow (I think a spring dress for Miss K)


Daydreams Dot Bouquets Light Blue  Daydreams Dot Bouquets Light Blue (another cute spring dress for Miss K)

Riley Blake Flutter Dream Blue Riley Blake Flutter Dream Blue (A Washi tunic for myself!)

These are the things I picked up today and I saved $12!!!

I also gifted myself something for my upcoming birthday and I am on the edge of my seat waiting for my first issue!


I decided to really splurge (to the tune of $84, YIKES) and purchase a year subscription to Ottobre.  Lately I've been uninspired by the patterns for children from the big 4 and I feel that Ottobre offers great patterns.  In each issue you get tons of patterns from baby size to teenagers.  I need "cool" patterns for my 10 year old boy, badly.  Plus, with my subscription I also get 2 women's editions!  I'm going to be sewing up a storm soon!

So head on over to Fabric.com and get yourself some new fabric.  It's a great way to jump you out of a sewing lag and get you inspired!

Super Awesome Rummage Sale Find!

Holy patterns, fabric and more Batman!  Did I land myself in a land of awesomeness! I very rarely find garage sales that have anything to do with sewing in my area.  Last night I checked Craigslist about 9pm because Miss K is desperate for a Barbie House..... ugh.  I noticed an estate sale that said tons of fabric and patterns.  OMG!  YAY!  So I went.  I'm very glad I did.  The ladies running the show were wonderful.  I loved every minute of going through the fabric and tons of patterns (a lot was vintage too!). Below are the pictures of the TONS of stuff I made out with!!! I also found 1 more sale on my way home; the gal had a cute "Fabric" sign out on her lawn.  LOL.
So for ONLY $25, yes you read that right, $25 I nabbed this entire lot of goodies below!  SUPER PUMPED RIGHT NOW!  My washing machine is ready too!
