Fabric and the Happy Dance

Fabric has a wonderful affect on me....even more wonderful when I get a bargain.
My guild had a silent auction and for a twoonie and some change I came away with this...
What is the effect you ask? I am again pleased with the world,
 happy to have saved this  mostly basement scented pile of scruffy looking fabric.
It's not basement scented anymore, just a bit scruffy.
 I have a wimm that calls for stripes so lucky happy me.
It's off to the attic with the fabric  (to get an attic scent)  and I am
back to viewing  the Olympics...go world go.

Tidy Up Time

Procrastination has hit an all time high in the Attic.  I stay busy whileI procrastinate.  I  'tidy' when I procrastinate, or another way to put it is to say I  sharpen All my pencils before I start. In this case I sorted fabric.  I felt every last piece.  I folded and sorted. Any piece less then a 1/4 m.  is in a laundry basket. (A project for another pencil sharpening attack.) Pieces between .25 and 1 m. are folded one way, one meter or larger is folded another way, both are folded to fit the storage unit.   I am so impressed....I impress easily, tis true. But look at this,  is it not marvelous!

From this to 


this,

and this and four fully folded drawers more. (Great alliteration eh!)
 Now I really must get those Christmas sewing projects
started.  hee hee

Looking for Fabric



I am wanting (I don't need) more of this fabric. I'd like it in this colourway but would be pleased to find it in any colour combinations.  I have this on the back of the first quilt made for DH, on the longarm in 04.  I am very fond of this print, have no more anywhere, so no selvedges to see who makes it.  If anyone recognizes this or better yet, has some to dispose of I would be so happy :0   I will try posting this to other search places if I can get more information about it.
