Another day, another pillowcase

Daughter and I went to the Wabash Valley yesterday. Lorelei went with us.  She did not want to go, but she wandered around and looked.  I was about ready to leave and she asked if I wanted to see her favorite fabric...so it was a batik.  In case you don't know, they are dyed fabrics, not printed.  Most batiks don't have a 'wrong' side...you can use either one and not tell the difference.



so I got a yard to make her another pillowcase...
I wish I had taken a photo of the fabric opened up ....

***********
I have been reading The Elephant Whisper by Lawrence Anthony with Graham Spence...and thoroughly enjoying it.  Follow the link to read about it...it is one I don't want to put down.  Yet I don't want to be done with it either.   There's nothing like a good book that you don't want to put down.

  2. I so agree with your thoughts of an exceptional book...can't put it down & don't want it to end.

    Beautiful fabric...makes a peaceful, dreamy atmosphere to lay your head on at night.

    Happy New Year Rose.
