Magical fabric wonderland

When Otis and I started talking about what elements of our "celebration" were important to us, on the top of my list were some DIY goodness....(his was a rock and roll band. We both got our way)

I really wanted to incorporate fabric and pattern into something. This special addition was totally WAAAaaaaaay easier to accomplish with the opening of a very awesome fabric shop here in Philly.

Spool Sewing: Welcome to the world! (gah! this place is soooo awesome!)

Best of all (and perhaps most dangerously) it's located right smack dab next to loop, my most favorite yarn shop.

And the big time added bonus is that one of my best girl's, Aimee of betsy ross patterns fame, works there.  Familiar faces make fanatical fabric shopping sprees so much more special!

My super secret fabric projects will be revealed right here very soon.

For now, here is a sneak peak:

happy tuesday!

I am so glad you sound more at ease with your planning. Loop is my absolutely favorite yarn store. The people are great, the yarn is fantastic. It is like walking into a rainbow! I cannot wait to visit Spool. I was so excited to find out that they were opening a fabric store. How dangerous is it that they are right next door to eachother. When I told my husband he was like "Oh No!" HAHA! Can't wait to see your project.
