New fabrics for future projects.

Went nuts at the fabric store yesterday, 60 dollars nuts. But I got great fabrics that will be reincarnated into great projects the first of which are two blankets. So behind the cut I worn you is a mess of images around 15. And a couple questions. Happy looking.


First off lets get the questions out of the way. I am making a baby blanket with circles and squares I intend to cut out circles and attatch them to the squares I am looking for the easiest yet still reliable way to do this. I want it to look good and not fray. So suggestions are appreciated. Here is a picture:



I want it to look like so:



Thats a baby blanket for my cousin. The clown fabric was just a dollar sixty nine a yard. Thats a deal.

Now this is the fabric along with some solid calico that I am using for baby enzo's sisters blankie, her name is Fiamma:



Now onto the fabric sampling:



To be used as a tote for Fi. This fabric was also only a 1.69 per yard USD. Can anyone tell me what language it is? I think it is italian but I wouldnt know, I only know it is not spanish. Heres a close up:



Hope you can make that out.

Now onto my next projext which is circus animals for Enzo.




For a dollar a yard I get to create the greatest show on earth. I think it makes 4 puppets. And I only needed one yard.

And then for their beloved mom, my beloved auntie I will make a big tote/shoulder bag with matching little inside bag out of one of these fabrics:





They are the same print but one is an offwhite yellowy and the other is pale blue. So I have not yet decided.

Now the rest of this stuff will get made into either skirts or purses. Enjoy.
