A few days off work and I went fabric shopping, at a fabric store! My normal method of acquiring fabric for projects is to purchase clothing from thrifting environments, anything thats 100% cotton. silk, linen or wool and do reclaimed clothing styling. This day was to be a treat, I would be purchasing the total yardage needed to make a new dress! It is amazing how fabric selection has changed over the years, it was the hardest task to find at retail a quality piece of dress goods, most fabrics are mixed blends. I found a lovely black and white large grid plaid, 100% cotton, and very soft to the touch. The purchase was just three yard, the amount needed to create a wonderfully soft and easy style dress.
So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous:... Psalm 58:11
