A Tisket, A Tasket


I purchased an Easter basket the other day when I was at JoAnn Fabrics.  The wonderful blue color caught my eye.  When I got home I noticed the liner was faded on one side from the sun.  Oh, I can fix that, I said to myself.


After looking at many fabrics I came to the conclusion that I was going to have to cut into my much loved stash of Lecien, "Flower Sugar".  I really had to talk myself into it.  Then I had a fabric ephiphany.


I have saved this stack of fabric for over a year now and refused to cut into it until I had just the "right" project.  So needless to say, it was buried with the rest of the fabric in my cabinet and I wasn't enjoying any of it.  At the rate I am going with projects, it could be quite some time before I find just the "right" project to make with it.  A few little pieces was all it took to make the liner.  I still have plenty left.  I urge you today to use  your favortie fabrics, isn't that what they were purchased for in the first place?  Blessings!


Joyfully,
