Ooops… My Wagon Tipped

Okay, I know I shouldn’t have done it, but I went to Silkweaver’s site. The whole picking a new fabric for Fairy Moon has been eating at me, so I started looking at my fabric choices again. Unfortunately, the fabric viewer I was using is slightly broken, so I couldn’t bring up some of the fabrics that I had previously noted. I looked at the Solos page and one fabric caught my eye. Okay, there were a total of 3 interesting ones, but this one just called to me. So, I pulled down the image, loaded it and Fairy Moon into a graphics program and put them together. Oh my!

Fairy Moon and SW Solo

You know what? When something calls to me that strongly, I listen and obey. 🙂 The fabric isn’t as dark as I wanted to try and go, but it has a lovely, swirly, kind of sunset in the clouds kind of feel to me. I can’t wait to see it in person and do a floss toss!

Of course, while I was there, I figured I may as well buy a couple of other things, so I indulged in a SoloFest Pack and a couple of small things from the Odds & Ends section. I limited myself to $50, which was better than the first total in the cart of nearly $90. I put a lot of things back. There truly is no point in buying fabrics at this time for an ornament magazine I don’t have yet. 😆

Well, I’m off to report my transgression on The Wagon board…

    Lovely fabric 🙂 That’s very similar to a piece I had custom dyed for Fairy Moon, though mine doesn’t have the orangey-pinky swirls. It should look beautiful on that.

    Ooo la la! Great choice! How did you manage to save that image? I keep trying to, but all that gets saved is the xs image and the fabric background does not… is there a trick to doing that?
