5 a visit to pink castle fabrics.

7.17.2012

I spent the weekend in Novi, MI attending the wedding of two of my very good friends.  Do you know what happens to be within driving distance of Novi?  Brenda and her awesome online fabric shop, Pink Castle Fabrics!

I somehow forgot my camera this weekend (thankfully a friend delivered it before the wedding) so all I have is this Instagram picture of about half of her shelves.
Seriously, she has so many awesome bolts of fabric in there!  I wanted to buy them all!  Thankfully I exhibited at least a little self control and came home with a slightly smaller stack.
I had actually purchased the bottom four fabrics last week, since I was afraid one of the prints (Seed Catalog) would be sold out by the time I got there (and it did!).

I bought a few basics, Kona Ash and White, a pinkish purple Lecien stripe, Heath in Gray and Black, a great purple called Modern Monet Floral,  Verona Dot in Rouge and Teal, and this pretty key print by Sandi Henderson (I'm going to frame some of it and hang it in the wall in our back entry).
I also couldn't resist the Meteor Shower prints from Tula Pink's Birds and the Bees, and the purple Swallow Skies print is such a wonderful color!
Last but not least, a couple white on white prints.  I have some friends coming to visit this weekend and we're planning on doing a little fabric dyeing!  This Seed Catalog print from Annie's Farm Stand has been known to have really great results.
 I also picked up a small polka dot, since you all know I can't resist a good dot print!
I had so much fun hanging out with Brenda, Emily, and Anna!  It was a quick trip but definitely worth the drive to meet these wonderful ladies and see Pink Castle Fabrics in person.  I also made a couple blogger bundles when I was there, but I'll post more about those soon :)

p.s. I've chosen a winner for the Timeless Treasures giveaway.  Congrats to Kim.
