All those solids come from my stash thanks to the Pink Chalk Fabrics Monthly Solids Club, I've only had to order 3 more to complete the look I want. I'm using 12 of the fabrics from the pre-cut packs and have concentrated on the blue/purple/green colourways. This is for next month's project.
Lucky for me, there is still a lot of my layer cake and charm pack left so I can still have lots of fun with this fabric after I finish this next project.
Of course there is every chance that I'll love future fabric releases by Kate Spain just as much, so I guess I shouldn't worry about missing out on beautiful fabric.
How do you buy fabric you love? Pre-cuts? One of everything? Some yardage of a few favourite prints? I've been buying lots of pre-cuts but thinking maybe I should change my tactics.
As much as I can at the time--if I TRULY love it. I have never regretted that.
ReplyDeleteMe too, if I truly love it then I buy as much as I can. My problem is cutting into the fabric. I just cant seem to cut into the really good stuff.
ReplyDeleteI buy yardage for backings, backgrounds, bindings etc but still like to dabble in the pre-cuts to get variety.
ReplyDeleteI love the vibrant colours and charming prints of your little bundle of fabric!!!! It begs the question, what do you have in mind!?LOL I guess we will just to have and see huh!!!!
ReplyDeleteI generally buy Fat Quarter Bundles and then if I really love it, I will choose a couple of the fabrics and get some yardage say, for a border, binding @ sashing then I will try and design something with EQ. Other times I have just bought a charm pack, to put something cute and small together!!! Because I wash all my fabrics I don't buy jellyrolls!
