Mendel's is a very different place. When I first walked in I thought I was going to be disappointed, but Keegan pointed out the fabrics were in the back of the store. Full steam ahead!
I was amazed at the very 'far out' fabrics they had, but I was impressed with the amount of Alexander Henry Fabrics. Wow! I know I would NEVER find some of them here in Ohio. Needless to say, I helped the California economy.
When they made toile fabric, I don't think this is what they had in mind!
It was just too cool not to purchase some.
The next fabric I found was just as interesting and had to have it too.
These next fabrics just crack me up. I love the skeleton drinking beer!
I have no idea what I will ever make out of these fabrics, but I really enjoy laughing at them!
Once I found these fabrics, I was on the hunt for more unusual fabrics that I would not be able to find around here.
Enter 'The Ghastlies'
I love the expression on the cat's face!
and...
The Knitty Biddy's! Aren't they a hoot? Once again, I have no idea what I will make out of them. Just had to have them.
On a calmer note, I found some Art Deco type fabric by Alexander Henry and bought some of it too. It's really tame compared to the previous pictures!
The fabric on the right is really a beautiful pink, then turquoise and white.
We all know that happy cows come from California.....
One last fabric photo. I bought a different colorway of this fabric.
My trip was wonderful and I am still so happy to have had the opportunity to go. I can hardly wait til next year!!!!
What treasure! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing these fabrics again. My son, Adam, would like that Art Deco fabric . . . can't wait for our Zig-Zag class day!
