This past weekend, I went to visit my mom. She had recently acquired lots and lots of fabric from a friend, so she told me that I could do some free fabric shopping from her stash. I had no idea, though, that I would be leaving with a giant canvas bag full of material. I thought "lots and lots" was an exaggeration. No. It was not. 

Here are the best of the best from what I brought home. Look how neatly stacked and folded they are! It was a shame to have to wash them and ruin the organizational beauty of it all. 

I already have a plan for these Gingham prints. Love them so much!

 

And I'm a huge fan of polka dots and stripes, so these were great to beef up my collection.

 

It's a little hard to tell, but those owl fabrics are navy blue and purple. I like them a lot.

 

 

Now, the question remains: Where the hell am I going to put these? Not that would stop me from taking them, of course. It's just that I just tidied the fabric shelves up. See?

Ahh. I finally have some things organized.

It took quite a bit of time to put all of this stuff away, but it does feel good. It's so nice to be able to see all of your fabric choices at one time. The three bins are filled with scarf supplies: 1. silk kimono pieces, 2. brown wool fabric from old suits, and 3. gray wool fabric from old suits. On the two shelves that are out of view are batting & interfacing and then a long bin for random things like purse handles, etc.

The coffee. I had to move it off the cutting table because I kept finding little threads in it whenever I took a sip.
