Fabric addict trigger warning! (Moderated by Deepika, Sharon1952)
Posted on: 1/14/16 10:45 AM ET
(11/14/16) 65% off Halston fabrics. There are a lot of natural fibers in addition to the polyester. There is an additional discount of $5 off $50 for registered users with the coupon code FIVE. I bought four pieces of fabric - a linen jersey, a rayon jersey (both for tops), a silk suiting fabric (for a jacket), and some rayon challis (top or dress). That just brought me up to $50.

Ah, so YOU were the one who made that lovely blue linen knit disappear right out of my cart before I could check out. Grrrr.

I know the feeling.
I have found that things don't disappear from my cart when I log in BEFORE I check out.

I saw that and was sooooo tempted, but I am a member of the fabric fast. I was brave and resisted temptation. But I am so envious of you.

I have way too many yards to count, and I will never use them up, but I will die trying!

Today it's 50% off Maggy London, which is good, but typically there's a lot of polyester.

Dang it, I have three Maggie London's in my "maybe later" list that I decided when they first showed up that I am buying them. Two orders in two days. Sheesh!
If it is silk tomorrow, I'm doomed.
ETA: Got 'em! 3 cottons, one is that purple border print. The blue and green watercolor floral, and the blue and white batik/paisley. All gorgeous.

Scrolling through today's cotton sale, I found this! Cotton shirting, in last summer's signature print from Land's End!! I have a pair of capris in this print, so I recognized it instantly. LE put this print on just about every woman's clothing item imaginable, so it came on lots of different fabric types. My cotton sateen capris are lovely, so I'm assuming the shirting is just as nice. (And it's FM, after all, so.)
Just one NB: The flower that looks bluish, in the lower lefthand quadrant, is purple (or at least it is on my capris. I ordered them to go with a blue top and was very surprised when there was no blue anywhere in the print).

Anyway, it's a lovely fabric for a nice price... and I would be very tempted to buy more if one of my Fabric Fast Rules was not "No Buying More Fabric of Clothing Items You Already Own."
