“I have given skill to all the skillful, so that they may make all that I have commanded you. “ Exodus 31:6


“O Thou who art the all pervading glory of the world, we bless Thee for the power of beauty to gladden our hearts.
We praise Thee that even the least of us may feel a thrill of the creative joy when we give form and substance to our thoughts and, beholding our handiwork, find it good and fair. “.

"Come, and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for me.
I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the LORD woud not have listened and heard my voice in prayer.
Praise be to God, Who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me!" Psalm 66:16-20

I got my order......

......and Fabric dot com ROCKS !

Some of these fabrics are out of my normal comfort zone,........and I love it !
And, wow, the quality of the Alexander Henry fabrics is so smooth and wonderful !

The cuts are all VERY generous, with each yard containing more than an extra inch, each half-yard usually measuring an inch larger, and the 5 yard piece measuring with an extra 11 1/2 inches !
There was only one fabric that had a problem, and I am sure that it was just an oversight.  This letter-print fabric has a stain near the selvedge edge (very convenient to obliterate), and my price deal was so good that I'm not even going to report it. 

Of course, my deal was extra terrific because I got an extra 30% off, a deal which ran out at midnight last night, unfortunately for anyone reading this, but those Jay Carroll prints are still just $2.49 per yard and the quality is practically edible !

    SWEET!! Was wondering when you would get the order. Fun stuff! Weird about the stain. I'm sure they would do something for you if you reported it. Like you said though...is it even worth it?? dunno - you decide.
    I placed ANOTHER order last night...just 45 minutes before that special ended. LOL!! I got some fabric that I thought looked like wool for two purses (bought patterns last week from Fabric.com) and some knit for some scarves. You know I HAD to bring the total up to 35 dollars.
    I already have more stuff in my cart! :0 Shhhhh, don't tell.
