(That is another blog entry I should write--gift fabrics and what they had become, reserved for another day.)
I remember that a friend who had recently moved to Singapore bought navy bedding (thanks to my willingness to go ikea shopping--secret motive: check out cloth on discount), I decided to make a welcome gift.
Luckily, I found a navy and mandarin kimono cloth that featured some dragons and blooms--remains from an obi I sew a while back, that would match the sheets.
Below is a photo I got back--with thanks.
I'm quite happy that the pillowcases I made went well with the navy and orange rambutan printed quilt cover. I don't think I could be any more pleased :) Now that I think about it, I also used some of this fabric to embellish jeans.

I have no doubt that you and my older sister would get on ~ She has many plastic buckets of fabric she has collected over the years.
I seems that I would be needing another one soon! I can't seem to throw anything bigger than 2 x 1 ft!
I keep thinking "I may have a use for this at some point". Oooops--I sound like a hoarder!
Once, I make some patchwork for a quilt to "clear" my stash :)
i'm excited to see that quilt :)
