Another project got in the way...

While out and about on my errands this afternoon, I spotted this fabric at JoAnn. It was on the clearance rack...home dec fabric on sale at $9.00/yd. and further discounted by 50%. I love the muted neutral colors in the design, and purchased 2 tiebacks to match the ones in my livingroom holding back the painter's dropcloth draperies I made last winter. I'm going to use this fabric to make a drapery for a bookcase; I won't be assembling the Martha Stewart-style craft cases anytime soon, so this will have to do. Since I've moved craft 'heaven' from the guest room, I have a need to do a 'creative concealment' ala Melissa at The Inspired Room.


I'll post a picture (maybe later this evening--or early tomorrow morning) to show you the results.

Love the fabric even if I haven't sewed anything in years. Look forward to seeing your project results.

I saw that fabric too and loved it! I just couldn't figure out anything to do with it. Can't wait to see the results.

How perfectly elegant!

No, I don't know Jon Chrisos...the Bangor newspeople are not the same as ours who hail from Portland stations. Glad that he's a sweet guy, though. Is he originally from Maine?

Oh my what gorgeous fabric and tie backs. I can't wait to see the end results. I wonder if our Joann fabrics has the same fabric. I will have to have a road trip this week end. Good luck with your project.

Catching Up

  It's been awhile...as usual, not much going on.  As I look through photos on my phone, I decided to do a little blog post. Last Monday...
