and Miss Joan & I went out today ~
we went shopping at Cottonwood in Charlottesville, VA ~
because, well...you know...
I NEEDED fabric. (really?)
no. not really.
I just suffer from the same addiction as most of you reading this ~
I just have to have it around to look at. & fondle. is that weird?
but I mean, LOOK at it...
blues, browns, cheddars...
~ black, more brown & blue ~
....always civil war repro's ~ always inspirational ~ always needed ~ right?
and I also bought this book by Renee Plains...
I'm sure you have all seen it, but if you haven't it's a goody.
and the sweet Red Basket that holds it all came from my friend Beth's shop,

Love that braided rug! I just took a class on how to do that yesterday and I love all the "hit and miss" colors. Sweet kitty too.
Ahhh, I love the look of that comfy cozy fireplace with Suzy kitty relaxing all stretched out. She is a beauty :o)
I need to go snooping through my fabrics for florals so I can create some Spring Easter goodies.
Hugs~Carol
Wonderful photos!
Suzy looks so sweet and comfy cozy! :)
I looove your cat Suzy...and isn't it fun how they just 'love' you and 'need' you unconditionally ... I have one that is my shadow as well...
I have a passion for fabric...and the colors you bought are wonderful.
Blessings,
Karen
Oh to be Suzy right now! I dream of a wood burning stove.
Hi, Lori:
Suzy looks just like our boy Biggie.
And he's super shiny, too. I like your fabric colors. I'm sure you'll come up with something fabulous made from them.
Hugs,
Susan
suzy is looking so sweet..
lovely pictures xxx
Maybe it's a black cat thing...my Melrose barely gets any rest on my busy days...following me back and forth, up and down...Suzy looks so happy!
Yummy new fabrics, I can see why you had to have them...I'm working hard at no buy this year...good thing a dear friend sent me a gift certificate to a quilt shop ;->
There is no way I can go shopping without touching everything so no.....it's not weird. I love the colors of fabirc you chose. They look like the one's I would have picked too:) Thanks for sharing. -Steph-
Always needed! Beautiful fabrics! Precious cat!
I really want that book! I saw it on another blog and it looks like an awesome book. Beautiful choice of fabrics! The civil war repro's are my very favorite. Sounds like a fun day to me~

I'm still aweing over the braided rug.....so pretty!
Your sweet Suzy reminds me of my Riley kitty who is no longer with us. He used to lay on the rug by our fireplace..speaking of rugs, no wonder Suzy likes laying on it...its gorgeous! Take care and stay warm, Janice
