Some fabrics are like that. They end up in a storage container marked with What was I Thinking?
Now and again I will be hunting through my fabric stash for that certain something when: "Oh my! Look what we've got here!" and "I forgot I had that!" Does that happen to you?
These three fabrics are by American Jane for Moda and are part of a fabric range called Peas and Carrots. They have now joined my Favorite Fabric stash and have settled in well. Ready for use.
I can't quite believe that these beauties ever got into the 'What was I thinking box'!!
ReplyDeletejealous jealous jealous
ReplyDeleteI love rediscovering forgotten beauties!!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic!
ReplyDeleteThat's like finding money in your coat pocket.
Oh, they are great! I look forward to seeing what you do with them :-)
ReplyDeleteI have the blue one in my stash, too -- love it! My stash tends to be a little on the tan side, but I'm collecting a lot of happy fabrics now.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful fabrics - very much your style me thinks!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Leannich - totally like finding money in your pocket - wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteI love the three and have used them myself also in a project. They turned out great. Good to get them in the Favourites now!!!
ReplyDeleteI love those fabrics... can't imagine sticking them in the "What was I thinking" bin!
ReplyDeleteOh yes! Those are definitely FAVORITES -- and definitely NOT "what was I thinking"!
ReplyDeleteI would like to roll around in your "what was I thinking" bin. I used the last of my green pez this week. I've only got a tiny bit of red and I'd kill (literally) for the dark blue!
ReplyDeleteOh, that happens to me too; and I love it when it does! Fabulous fabrics!
ReplyDeleteNow those are cute! I can see all sorts of cool stuff from that!
ReplyDeleteThey remind me of pezz candies. Love the Red one.
ReplyDeleteLove these happy fabrics. I know you'll find a wonderful use for them!
ReplyDeleteAs a matter of fact, I just did that yesterday! I recently moved my stash into bins due to construction in my room, and I opened one up to find something, and I met many lovely fabrics I'd completely forgotten! Isn't it fun? Like shopping all over again!
ReplyDeleteOooh I love those fabrics! What were they doing in your "What was I thinking" box???
ReplyDeleteI have to admit though that since I have been in Greece buying fabrics online for the last 5 months, I will probably get home next year and have lots of fabrics to put in the "What was I thinking box". Hopefully though if I keep them long enough I will like them again : )

You know, I see fabrics in the stores and pass them over and then when you post them, I'm the one who says, "what was I thinking" because when I see them on your blog, I love them!!! Duh! I'm sure I passed these over too.
ReplyDeleteThose three pieces are some of my all-time favorites. Lucky find. Happy Day!
ReplyDeleteI love these Peas & Carrots - but SO hard to find!
