~In The Sewing Room~

~I find it really hard to cut up pretty  fabrics......I tend to hoard them as well.  I have a piece of Donna Dewberry fabric that I have been hoarding forever that I have never had the heart to use....maybe  its time to sell it on so that someone else can either hoard ir or actually use it to make something~

~Happy Pink Saturday~


Beautiful painted Roses




~Thank you to Beverley from How Sweet The Sound for playing host each and every week~

    I've seen this fabric before...am thinking I might have covered pillows with it several yrs ago.
    It was large enuf pieces that I covered the pillows and used a safety pin to hold it...I didn't want to cut, either.
    Very pretty.
    Happy Easter

    I sometimes have fabric that I can't cut either because I am waiting for the perfect project for it.
    You have made some pretty things so I am sure you will make something beautiful with it.

    Thank you for your visit and kind words.

    Have a wonderful Easter,

    Carolyn

      I hope I can eventually make something that suits it...if not it will go back in the drawer for a few more years. Thank you so much for stopping by.

    That fabric is very pretty. What about using stitch witchery tape? Then you could use it and reclaim it. HPS Happy Easter

    Thank you for your sweet comment on my PS post. I love your Donna Dewberry fabric so much. I once bought some gorgeous fabric to make our daughter a going a way dress for her honeymoon and cut it wrong. I think of buying more of that fabric every time I want to sew something. I can understand your hesitation in cutting that pretty fabric.
    Happy Easter to you and yours.
    xo,
    Jeanne

    Wow, I totally agree that some fabric is almost impossible to cut up. The roses are particularly exquisite, though. Thank you for sharing them.

    I have the same hesitancy with unique paper. But then I remember I paid for it and it is an inanimate object who will not mind being cut up. Gail

    i am looking for a vintage pieces of fabric to cut them and put them on the front of the stairs. I want a different color for every stair. They say it's easy with decoupage or Mod Podge you can get at any hardware store or craft store. Then every time you climb the stairs you see your beautiful fabric everyday!
