...I think I need to go to NYC soon or sooner, LOL!<br /><br />Of the Metro fabrics, I'm in love with the purple knit, the seersucker (in my Top 5 favorite fabrics) and the Swiss Dot. Too delicious.<br /><br />Love both of the Spandex House knits.<br /><br />Am now ADDICTED to my bias tape maker. I think 1/2" is the standard one, no?<br /><br />And, while I'm not big on green, I think both the Paron Silks are TDF!!!<br /><br />Oh, and I had a link for you but hurricane weather + internet make it impossible to go online so I'll send it later.
