Fabric sighting: store window


I stole this photo from The Needle Shop's Facebook page and shamelessly pasted it here. There's a rule that when you're excited to see your name on a store window, you have to show everyone you know and lots of people you don't.

The shop is promoting my mini home decor fabric collection, Arrow. The print is inspired by airport signage; I had travel on my mind. (I made Arrow a logo and marketing materials, too, just for fun.)

I expect there will be more Arrow sightings here in the next couple weeks since I can think of a few nifty projects people are working on— I'd love to share the before-and-afters, the tutorials, and finished products. They might inspire DIY projects of your own using your favorite fabrics. Onward and upward!

    Now that's one cool window display! I bet it really grabs the attention of anyone passing by! Hope no one makes a wrong turn because of it. ;)

    I even have a secret project in mind for your Arrow fabric that I haven't told you about. :) First things first, though.

    Grandma G: My bet is you're making a Victorian dress. But Jess said you don't have enough fabric for a whole dress, so maybe a Victorian blouse and mini-skirt. Hm. Unless you're making a parachute? Nothing like a thousands-of-feet-up-in-the-air traffic signal of sorts. For birds, angels and stray aircraft.

    LiEr, you have to think much smaller than that! I'm not gonna have much fabric left by the time I get these other projects done. ;)

    That really IS a rule, you know, and I'm so glad you played by the rules! It's good to see someone enjoying their successes.
