Fabric shopping

Last week, I went to LA to do a bit of shopping.  I had finished the designs for the bags and it was time to find all the fabrics I need.  My goal was to find a different fabric for each bag so that each bag was unique beyond just the thread color and numbers.  I went through what I had on hand first and found 22 out of the 66 I needed.  66?  Yup, I needed 66 unique fabrics in total.  And I thought shopping for Six was bad.

After shopping for several hours during what might have been the hottest day I have ever spent in LA (my car claims it hit 100 and I believe it), I came home with 41 pieces!


A few of the 41 were unplanned but so perfect I had to get them so I'm still missing a few pieces but I got pretty close.  If I get all of these done, then I'll worry about the missing few.
