Here is my fabric. I have had it about a year. We were in my favorite fabric store. The one with the faux zebra upholstered couches for husbands to nap on!
This lovely fabric was at the door on a stand with several rolls of exotic (expensive) fabrics.
My Beloved stopped, pulled out a foot or two of this fabric and exclaimed "This is so beautiful. If I liked fabric I would buy it just to have!"
He was not drugged or coerced, he said it.
And I bought it!
This is a lovely store with all of the gorgeous, jewel toned silks on rolls on the walls looking like liquid magic. He is always dazzled by the colors.
So here is my fabric:
And I want to make a Lutterloh duster that will end up having the flavor of one of Miss Fisher's .
The fabric is silk tulle embroidered with silk.
I cannot decide whether to have the scalloped edge as center front or hem. This is not the widest of fabric.
Unlike my daughter that refuses to ever enter a fabric store again because she claims to be traumatized because as a child had to wait for me to have fabric cut, or to stand in line with extra coupons that clearly said "one per family". My Beloved will gladly go fabric shopping with me.
My daughter will go fabric shopping when I visit her in Dallas if there is a Starbucks within a mile!
