New Knit Goodies!!!

After making it to work and checking my emails I ran across this Fabric.Com sales flyer in my inbox.
I figured they were still trying to see some of the items I saw listed on last week so I almost didn't pay it any mind. It's been a couple of months since I ordered something from these guys.

I'm so glad I didn't ignore this email. It just so happens that they were selling printed jersey knits for the low, low, low price of $2.99/yard. After seeing this, I still quite don't know what happened. I've never placed an order so fast in my life. I think I had my order complete in 4 minutes flat!!! Time is of the essence when you're trying to acquire fabrics that in 2 of my 5 selections, had less then 10 yards left. So here's what I got. With the possible exception of the last 2 (please keep your fingers crossed for me that they still have enough left to complete my order), I  managed to get these fabrics.
  

  

 

 

 

Looking at these fabric, I'm sure some of them might raise a few eyebrows. I always trust my instincts when it comes to fabric. I don't have a method---- it's all just instinct. If I love the pattern and colors it's an automatic "shoo in". And I can usually match the right fabric with the right pattern. I can't wait to get my hands on these knit fabrics!!!!!

  2. Love the fabric! I'd seen three of those (the last two and the brown and gold) during the holiday sale and talked myself out of getting them. Dang. I wanted them for the latest Simplicity patterns. I fell prey to the same email - I have a few yards of the rayon blend jersey headed my way.

  3. Thanks! Trust me, like you I ignore these things everyday until I run into a bargain I just can't pass up! It was funny, the day I purchased this fabric online, I went into JoAnn's and spotted a new gorgeous jersey knit. But it was priced at $14.99/yd. Even with my coupon I wasn't going to get the $2.99 deal I got offline. I happily passed it up. In the end it's just fabric. No one can have it all--at least that's what I tell myself! LOL!
