“Hi. My name is Deanna and I’m a vintage fabric addict.”
I can’t seem to ever get enough of it. No matter how many plastic totes I have stacked to the ceiling, I can never resist the temptation. It just sucks me in. Case in point…



Even if I sewed every day of my life, I don’t think I could use all of this but it’s too wonderful to part with. My biggest weakness? Vintage feedsack and juvenile prints. Can’t you tell? I have all sorts of ideas that just swirl in my head when I look at this stuff. And I do sew some things for the shop, but there just aren’t enough hours in the day. You know what I mean? And don’t even get me started on my chenille collection.
So they say the first step in beating an addiction is admitting you have a problem… people, I clearly have a problem.

This cracks me up. I’m the same way– I LOVE those Wyndham storybook prints (I have about 5 of them)…I don’t sew at all, but I can’t get enough of those vintage nursery feedsack repros. And also Japanese fabric because they all look vintage-y to me. Love your collection!!!
