I wish I could find a good "fabric shopping" icon...

Anyway, yesterday was my birthday, and I celebrated by taking my 40% off coupon to Joann Fabrics to get some black lace. I got 10 yards of a faux English net that is 2 1/2 inches deep. Then in the sale area, I found the most beautiful wine taffeta embroidered with olive and gold flowers and vines!! Originally about $40 a yard in their home decor section, it was now $5/yard!! But there was only a yard and 20 inches left. I took it!! It will most likely turn into most of a day bodice.











Tomorrow begins the 50% off coupon days, so I'll go back for some more trim. I seem to buy lots of fabric and never any trim, so I need to stock up.

Ooo, how gorgeous! Good thing you know how to make things that don't take fourteen yards of cloth-- you *know* a lot of that went for upholstery.
