I love that they have a remnant section. Perfect for stocking up for those "I just gotta sew" moments.
I would love to buy the Canyon Butterfly fabric to recover my Grandmother's old dining room chairs. I inherited her dining set but the chairs need recovering especially the one she used at her sewing machine...the whole ride side is worn through down to the wood. I love looking at that and remembering her but I know she'd love to be remembered by having them functional too and covered in a fabric that reminds me of her love of butterflies! ladicakes (at ) gmail (dot) com

I have so many sewing projects for future baby's room, I don't even know where I'd start!
