...to get fun fabric.
I have been getting a bunch of emails, thanks to Little Bird, who included me in a post a few days ago, asking where I get the fabric I use for my bibs. The vintage inspired Christmas fabric is from Michael Miller. Most of those pictures above are from Moda. I will truthfully go to just about any store to get fabric, but I have the best luck with fabric lines from Free Spirit, Michael Miller, Kaufmann and Windmere. National chains like Joanns and Hancock have begun carrying some Michael Miller and Kaufmann. Otherwise I look at local quilt stores or online. I try to keep really good records of the fabric I use and unless I really love something, I try to use fabric from recent lines. In the past I have found myself trying to locate a fabric by driving around to shops asking "did you ever sell this fabric?" "do you know who made it?" or searching for hours online by typing in words like "rabbit" "bunny", etc. So if you see a specific fabric you are wondering about, please email or leave a question in the comments and I will do my best to let you know.
If you are interested in buying a bib, I will try to open my Etsy shop this weekend.
oh those are so cute!
