Friday's Favorite Fabric Finds

~*~

Feeling rather delicate this week, so I thought I would share some fabrics that express this perfectly.  The colors and details of these are just beautiful!  Look for them in sosovintage soon :)

Just when I thought Easter basket orders were finished, two more came in yesterday!  This is the ball of fabric ready to be crocheted for the first one.  This particular basket will be the third I've made for this family- what an honor to have them keep coming back each time they have a new baby. 

~*~

Not yet sure about fabric desires for basket order 2... hope to hear back from them soon.

Remember my red ombre basket?  Well, it will be on the sosorosey shelves soon as it did not work out for the customer who ordered it.  Now she would like two round coaster/pad/trivets instead.  We were going to go with fabric, but after looking without success in 4 different stores for basic red with black or gray flecks, I had to offer other options.  I worked this up to show her what red with black yarn looks like.  Fingers crossed that she likes it!

Lately when I am not making baskets, being a mom, hosting PTA ice cream socials, and collecting fabric for various custom orders, I'm working on my "for fun" robin's egg rug.  This yarn is soooooo soft, and while I will probably list it, I won't be sad if it doesn't sell.  ;)

What have you been working on lately?

Makeover Monday: 3/11

Thought you might enjoy seeing the Easter basket that I shared fabrics for last Monday.

This little lady is headed all the way to Texas :)

The lucky little girl's mom wanted to know if I could personalize the basket.  I don't sew or monogram, but I can add a charm.  This little frame with "Kyleigh Jean" is just tied with ribbon to the fabric bow.  An adorable touch- I love this idea!

Here's wishing you a lovely week!

It's a busy time here at the *soso* world headquarters.  I've finished the base of the Easter basket...

~*~

finished an 18" by 70" cotton runner...

~*~

and started gathering white fabrics for 50 hay bales.  Yep, another fabulous outdoor wedding to outfit!

~*~

The best work for today, though, is entertaining Sophie on her first real snow day in quite awhile.  It is pouring snow outside- a heavy, wet mixture that is keeping totals down, but that is excellent for making snowballs and bricks.  A fun time for this girl in the forest :)

Makeover Monday: 3/4

~*~

I'm squeaking in one more custom ruffled Easter basket!  My customer has chosen this soft flannel fabric as her main ruffle color.

~*~

The base will be made from this coordinating gingham to ensure that I have plenty of the other for lots of ruffles.

Hoping to have it finished this week... stay tuned!

Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss.  Here is Sophie's tribute to the creator of the Cat in the Hat :)

Friday's Favorite Fabric Finds

Happy March!  In honor of the new month, I have some new vintage fabrics in greens, blues and yellows to share:

~*~

~*~

The green stripe is 100% cotton, and the rest are 50/50.  Most of these are first time sosovintage acquisitions, and I'm always excited to add some freshness to the shop shelves.

Here's hoping this month brings warm weather, blue skies and happy days to us all :)
