Holy Fabrics Batman! And taking a 4 yr old zipper shopping

♥ Comments (11) ♥

First of all this is what ensues when you take a 4 yr old to Vogue Fabrics to do bulk zipper shopping. Courtsey of Uncle Nat using his iphone

the i’ll look innocent after 45 secons i’ll say HURRY UP JEEEEEN!



or i’ll just act like a muppet when uncle nat takes out his iphone




After 5 min, ARE WE DONE YET?



this ensues for half an hour.



So anyways, I wanted to thank you all for your support again. With a rash of orders in the shop we’ve been able to take care of craft fair fee’s, rental fee’s, and buy new supplies. oh yes. that means NEW FABRICS for y’all.

I wanted to take a minute to say some thing sabout our fabrics. You may notice we don’t buy all Amy butler, or heather bailey, or whoever just because they are cool. We tend to buy what reflects our personalities. So if you look over the fabrics in our shop you can see a pretty clear distinction as to what wendy likes to pick out and whai pick out. We pretty much just go on what we like, and what we feel show off our fun sister sewing team spirit and fun personalites. Another important thing about our fabric choices is, we buy 85% of our fabrics locally at a few shops owned by women, in our community. This way we enjoy the patronage we get from knowing the store owner/employee’s and have our money filtered back into our local community. I also enjoy knowing that both of these businesses are SMALL and owned by WOMEN. Women who rock. The other 15% of our fabrics we buy from etsy to again filter our money into the crafting community.  There’s a lot to be said about building a patronage with someone too. You get friendly chats, curosity of what you are making, extra yardage sometimes, or the end of the bolt for no charge. In this day and age in online everything, i value our patronages with several shop owners.
That said, check out what will be filtering down into project pouches sometime in the future, from fabric stash on etsy



from various shops

And we have more of the day of the dead fabric in the large glittery skulls coming, and we have loteria fabric as well.
We can still take custom orders, since stuff filtering into the shop will be slow until after Sept 16th (renegade) is over. So if you are intrested in something, you can drop us a line and see if we can work it out.
Also Wolly Bully’s Jenny sent me some little tiny yarn samples with her cards. So very nice of her. So some of y’all will get her little samples! yum!

I’ve enjoyed chatting with a lot you, and appreciate everyone’s hellos. Try to stay cool today!
