I did the same thing!!

beautiful

I saw them too! I went to the site. I looked and looked. I ended up buying $50 in thread, also irresistible. Having just spent 12 days on a state wide shop hop I just can not justify buying more fabric! But I didn't buy any thread on the hop, LOL!!

I looked and sighed. I am in the process of using all my hoarded batiks in a "It's Good to Be Square" and I am reluctant to part with all of them. I am using some Stonehenge which really is not a true batik, it is printed, but has some beautiful subtle streaks, making great texture and I needed more nondescript backgound colors. The Stonehenge also frays a lot, so I would suggest starching well before cutting. So, I hate not having hoards of batiks in my stash, but no more ordering right now. No, you cannot have any more at this time. No, don't be looking at the fat quarter bundles again. No, no, no.

If my DH said buy it, I would order it right away. No second thoughts.

Gorgeous! Just perfect for making stained glass windows!

THEY ARE GORGEOUS. I MAY HAVE TO INDULGE JUST A LITTLE. BUT THIS AGAIN GOT ME THINKING ABOUT THE COST OF FABRIC. HOW IS IT THAT CONNECTING THREADS CAN GET BEAUTIFUL BATIKS FROM INDONESIA AND SELL THEM FOR LESS THEN $7.00 PER YARD, AND THE OTHER FABRIC MANUFACTURERS/DISTRIBUTERS HAVE TO CHARGE AN AVERAGE OF $11.00 AND UP? EVEN VERY CHEAP, FLIMSY FEELING BATIKS AT JOANNE'S ARE OVER $12.00 A YARD. JUST MAKES NO SENSE TO ME, AND STRENGTHENS MY INCLINATION THAT FABRIC AND OR COTTON PRICES, SORT OF LIKE GAS PRICES, ARE BEING ARTIFICALLY MANIPULATED UPWARDS.

Me, too! Although I was tempted to check out the link on this thread and I did! But, I didn't buy. I sure do like the new batiks!

Oh, I know!!!! I am trying to ignore them. I LOVE batiks and those are just beyond awesome. I am trying not to buy new for a while, but am weakening real fast. :roll:

You may be responsible for my credit debt escalating! ROFLOL! They certainly have some pretty ones. I ordered some out of the sale section and just got them a few days ago - nice! Thanks for sharing.
