A weird event in my sewing room
[ATTACH=CONFIG]340313[/ATTACH]I have been making these wallhangings with the German Shorthaired Pointer applique. Number 5 is in the process of stitching the binding to the back and number 6 still needs its binding. I was down to just a large scrap of the fabric that I used for the body of the dog. Just large enough to make 4 or 5 more dogs. I took that scrap to several LQSs and was told it was very old and not available. It did have the name in the selvedge so I did several internet searches including the FabShopHop search that is sent to all the online sellers...no response. So I bought some other fabrics to audition.
Tonight I moved just one piece of fabric and under the scrap I was carrying around was nearly a yard of the fabric I have been trying to find. Very strange - I was sure I was working with the only piece of that fabric that I had. I'm very sure that I only bought one piece of that fabric...did it multiply in the dark???
Now I'm ready to do more which is good as my club will be using 3 of these for the highest "trophies" for the highest awards at our specialty show in 2013.
