I finished a project today, but because it's a gift, I can't show it to you quite yet. I'm sure you do what I do when you're in between projects, or have just finished one and are too scattered to start another. We dream on our stash! Today, I'm
dreaming of Martinique. Beautiful fabrics reminiscent of a romantic Caribbean island. Cool ocean breezes, coral reefs and fragrant blossoms.
I can dream on this collection, assembled for the applique' quilt I'll be finishing soon, with all of its soft and feminine colors, or perhaps...
those French General fabrics I've been contemplating for a table runner for our antique oak table?
I always return to these soft colors...restful, quiet, subtle...they all speak to me, each with their own voices. Calming my mind. Focusing my thoughts. Preparing me to start anew with a sense of purpose. Excited for a fresh start. Where will I go next? Where will
you go next?

love your stash... yours is so light and airy.. I am in No. Ohio and my stash runs to darker, primitive colors... so nice to see the other side of the spectrum.
ReplyDeleteI just love all those fabrics Donna, but Martinque and the French General fabrics have to be my favorites. I'm too afraid to cut mine - I just love looking at them in their tied bundle.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a whole bunch of fun!

ReplyDeleteOh such lush fabrics. I can almost "pet" them from here!
ReplyDeleteYour fabrics are always gorgeous. Love the combination and colors that you choose. Martinique sounds wonderful, whether it's a color combo or the real thing, ooohhh just wonderful!

Just touching fabric and folding it into pretty little piles makes my entire day. Visions of wonderful creations do dance in my head!
