Dupioni Silks! Hands down -- no questions asked. I love so many fabrics -- but if I were to splurge, it would be all about silks.
Every once in a while, my friends and I play the "what would you buy" (with the caveat that this is guilt free money that you HAVE to spend on quilting, of course). I think about
- Kaffe fabrics
- Amy Butler
- Books
- Patterns
- Aurafil thread samplers
- Every ruler out there
- More scissors (can you have too many?)
- Lush wools
But in the end -- it's silks for me. I touch them, caress them, admire them at all the quilt shows -- but I don't invest in them (yet). If you haven't checked out today's guest author at Stash Manicure (
http://stashmanicure.blogspot.com/), it's worth a peek to see them glow and shimmer. I'd do one entire quilt in silks and cherish it forever.....
What about you? If you had $1,000 for quilting, what would YOU buy?
Keep piecing, Jan
