Of course, I began this project in a fabric store -- like any normal person would....And God knows there are MANY WONDERFUL fabrics out there. It would have been easy to fall in love.
However -- since I am a girl on a budget -- before I went crazy and actually PAID A WHOPPING $5 a yard -- I decided to go shopping in my basement.
I mean -- WHAT'S THE POINT OF HAVING A STASH, PEOPLE???
And -- the fabric treasure I found living in my basement was completely stunning -- even to me...
 |
| My favorite color -- YELLOW. This is a queen size Ralph Lauren duvet cover. The fabric is a heavy cotton duck...perfect! |
 |
| I found three yards of this outdoor fabric. Hey -- it's not perfect, but it could work??? |
 |
| Several years ago, I paid $2.50 for two curtain panels. Made from outdoor fabric -- each panel measured 84" x 54". THAT IS A LOT OF FABRIC... |
 |
| AND -- get this -- the curtains are lined with that special stuff made for draperies. Mildew-resistant, sun-resistant....UNEXPECTED BONUS, EH?? |
 |
| There seems to be a circles theme...I wonder if this wall hanging might be worked into the sofa?? I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED IT... |
 |
| AND -- what does this leftover gallon of paint have to do with the sofa project?? Stay tuned...that will be NEXT week's post... |
 |
| OH -- I almost forgot. I just happened to have two yards of OUTDOOR FABRIC in a zebra pattern (from a trip to Jackman's in St. Louis last year after Babylock Tech)... |
Because, of course, if you have been reading my blog -- you know I consider Zebra to be the NEW BLACK...
OH, YEAH -- THIS IS GONNA BE FUN...!!
