New Fabric :D

So excited. Placed my first order over at FabricMart!

I bought only from the clearance section because I am ... financially challenged... but I need fabric because I am still learning and need something to practice with. These are the perfect prices for me!


This gorgeous Royal Blue Dazzle Knit is the first thing that caught my eye. I bought 3 yards at $1.99/yd.


Also, my favorite, was this hot pink and black plaid garbadine rayon... I couldn't buy enough of this lol. pink and black are two of my favorite colors. I could not buy enough of this fabric.... I got 10 yds lol but 10 yds was their limit. I know, its a lot of fabric, and thank goodness its 60" wide! I hate finding a fabric I love that's only like 45" wide. 60" is so much better. Don't look at me like that, it was only $1 a yard!

Shipping was $8. So my total (with a small discount code I had (19%) turned out to be $22 something
so if you divide 22 by 13 (total yardage) I effectively paid $1.69/yd which is seriously good...

And both the fabrics I got were fabrics I have never seen around my area... but all I have to choose from is a tiny overpriced Jo-Ann Fabrics and a shoddy Hobby Lobby.

This area does not cater to seamstresses.

Going to have to make a short road trip one of these days to a Hancock or something else. I've found pretty good cheap fabric at Hancock before. Just wish we had one in my town :/
