In addition to the computer, I have ordered samples of "cross shot" dupioni that I am interested in buying for the dress I need to make. Most of them are shades of blue but there are a couple reds in there. I'm really excited to see them. You can't really tell what color they are on screen so I wanted to handle them. Compare to what I have. So I have 6 different samples of 1/8 of a yard of fabric winging their way to me. What does one do with 1/8 of a yard of fun colored silk? :D Have fun of course.

Its not even gonna be a yard. I think I'm leaning towards using the strips as decoration for something.

Wrap tarot cards in them? Dress shrines with them? Make medicine bags or herbal sachet pillows or or or...

It's silk. The possibilities are endless. :-)

Hmm, if they arrive in time I may use parts for the Ostara we're planning.

Where?

They do. Its whatever the smallest amount they will cut of that particular fabric is, usually 1/8 of a yard, plus 4.95 shipping. The max number of samples they will ship is 8.

I love Denver Fabrics.

1/8 of a yard is good for tying things up. *grin*
