My fabric came today, and man, the colors are more vibrant than I ever expected! They are amazing; the weaves, the patterns the colors!

That light tan striped number third in from the left is seersucker. The brown leaf print is a voile! Squeee!!!
I think Im gonna do a standard wash in woolite and let them hang dry.

Plus, this got my attention, the remnant card. There is a tab on the back that fold over and covers/protects the staple. They thought of EVERYTHING.

I'm going to be watching you like a hawk, LD, to see what you do with those beautiful fabrics! I especially love the ones in the middle.

Oh, that small blue gingham is totally becoming a blouse :D

The light blue/dark blue striped fabric has some age staining that the wash didint get out (I wash vintage fabric phases, one wash to get a basic clean, then Ill wash them again when the garments I make them need it) so Ill have to wash this one again.

Right now they are hanging out in the sun (wrong sides up) drying. I feel a project coming on tomorrow...:rolleyes:
