    Sperm is a good guess but I think I have to go with marshmallows on a twig.

    My first thought was pussywillows, and my second was marshmallows on sticks.

    I hate to ask this but...

    If I had said right away, "these are marshmallows on sticks" would you have looked at the fabric and still thought of sperm?

    'Cause I don't know if I'm ready to be selling sperm fabric in our store... :?

    Nan, yes I would have still thought of sperm. Like I said, I've been a nurse too too long!! I worked OB/Gyn for 20+ yrs and spent a lot of time doing infertility treatments. Looked at a lot of sperm under microscope (and yes there are 2-headed and 2 tailed but we don't need a biology lesson here LOL).
    I'm sorry if I upset anyone-I just posted the first thing that came to mind.
    I really love that you post new fabrics for us to view-thank you.
    Peace-Jan
