I'm not sure I have any readers left after not posting in forever, but here it goes anyway...
Travis bought me a great drafting/drawing/light table the other day, since much of my time will be spent drawing during my time at ASU. After a full weekend of sitting at said table on one of our usually comfy dining chairs, I bought myself this AWESOME cushy chair!!
My friend Jen reminded me awhile back via her blog post about a place I have been meaning to check out... SAS Fabrics by the Pound... I finally got around to going over there the other day while Trav was in class. I didn't give myself nearly enough time, but I did find a few great things while there.
Not sure what I'm going to do with this Amy Butler gem I found, but I got about 4 yards for $4.00...
This BEAUTY cost me a whopping $9.00, but it was well worth it. What you can't see is that there is enough fabric here to make me and my 20 closest girlfriends Maxi Dresses. I'm planning on making myself a Maxi Dress as a cover-up for my hopefully much smaller body to wear to the pool next summer.
And last but not least is this great pattern in thin t-shirty material that I'm going to make myself a great top with. The color is a little off, but the yellowy color is actually lime green. It was $2.50.My grand total was $15.50, but if I'd had more time I probably would have spent a bunch more. They have home decor fabric and tons of trim options... I've got to measure the new place for curtains and then I'm headed back for all the stuff to make some awesome ones.

I love SAS too! You're going to love coupon sense! Thanks for putting me as your reference. Nina Brancock is my instructor and she's wonderful! If you haven't, put her as your instructor and make sure that you go to one of her classes. They are free and they will really help you understand the program.

Looks great! I LOVE beautiful fabrics, they are an obsession for me. Now I just need to learn how to sew.
