Purchases, Yes More Fabric

Folks, I have more fabric than what I know what to do with but yet I purchase more.  Here is my latest purchases:


This is an Indigo Slub Stretch Denim.  It is a cotton/spandex blend with 10% stretch and 60-inches wide.  It is machine wash cold, tumble dry low.  I purchased 3 yards with the intent of making a Liesl & Co Amera Dress.  I also purchased matching thread. 


This is a Khaki 4-way stretch cotton twill.  It is a cotton/spandex blend with 30% stretch and 52-inches wide.  It is machine wash cold, and tumble dry low.  I purchased 2 yards with the intent of making the Itch to Stitch Quebec Skirt.  Hopefully, I purchased enough yardage.  I also purchased matching thread.


This is Indigo Lightweight Denim (4.4oz).  It is 100% cotton and 60-inches wide.  It is machine wash cold and tumble dry low.  I purchased 3 yards with the intent to make the Itch to Stitch Vikros Dress.  I also purchased matching thread.

I am very happy that online stores have stepped up and started offering matching thread services.  To my knowledge, there are not any local businesses carrying good thread.  Walmart has their own brand and Hobby Lobby has their own brand.  The Walmart thread I will not purchase.  I have been experimenting with the Hobby Lobby thread.  So far, it has not caused any issues with the sewing machine.

This is my first fabric purchase since July.  So, I suppose I have not done too bad this year with purchases but I have purchased more than I have sewn.
