for Sunny

Larisa, I'm sooooooooooooo glad the box arrived. I have no idea what the fiber content of any of it is, LOL. My best guess is to treat it like I treat everything: wash on cold, hang to dry. I do that before sewing any garment and if I pick up "mystery fabric" at estate sales I do the same before putting into a quilt. Wallhangings, I'm not too worried about.

Good luck, and I really want to see some pics eventually of adorable children wearing clothes made of mystery fibers. ;)

As soon as I get these signature quilts finished I will get to work on the kids clothing. I will actually be attaching the label to the first quilt tonight..woohoo!!! pictures have been taken with it stretched across my dining room table, and I will try to remember to upload them tonight...tomorrow at the latest.

I have already determined that the red print will go into a dress for me...just because it's funky enough. The pink linen-type fabric with the roses...that's causing some trouble because I *don't* like pink, but I have a great pattern that would work nicely with the fabric. I am thinking that the ultra-light gauze with the sombreros will work up nicely into a summer nightgown....and man..ALL that purple gingham!!!! That could easily work up into several interchangeable pieces for DD as well as new curtains for the sewing room!!!! If I decide to do that, the curtains that I have up now will get recycled into a couple more rows of ruffles to be sen onto a dress that DD just loves (as do I), but that is a bit short on her right now (as in, barely covering her butt!!!).

I will definitely post pictures when I get these things figured out and finished.

Thanks again!!

Larisa
