It was actually an impulse purchase. DH and I were at JoAnn's picking up the drapery fabric we had ordered and I just happened to see this sheer fabric. It has a crinkly texture to it that I thought (think) looks nice and I had one of those wonderful 40% off coupons!! And the rest is history. As I said in another post, its OCFBD - Obsessive Compulsive Fabric Buying Disease!!
