I didn't intend to buy all this fabric. Promise.
But there was a snafu with the original order, and in the process of trying to replace an item, I ended up ordering an extra four cuts, just so that I could have them and have stash fabric again.
I figured I wouldn't worry, and just would try not to buy more until I travel later this year.
Part II
I've really been trying to embrace prints more and more, and these two will take me outside my comfort zone a little more.
I saw both of these when I was browsing some sale fabrics, and mentally tucked them away for when the right project arose.
This fabric was really what started the stash buy. Honest. The associate told me they were out of stock, but it looked in stock online, so I figured since I had to have it, I'd try to order it... and see what happened!
And it came!
I've been hemming and hawing, but I think this one is destined for Vogue 1348. Vogue 1397 was another contender, but it's got another fabric lined up now, in something that will drape a little better.
But, ironically, the challis was in my cart before that.
I loved this challis when I saw it, and knew it would be perfect for Vogue 1511.
This one will be for one of the later projects this year, since I'm not exactly dying for long-sleeved dresses in spring and summer. A perfect weight for fall, though!
