Wonderful Fabrics by Dixie Samplar

When I began blogging years ago, I didn't have a cross stitching hobby. I had several bloggers encourage me to give it a try and WHA LAH, I loved it.

Terri, at Dixie Samplar Designs, was one of the bloggers that encouraged me. She still does today and recently sent me some of her hand-dyed fabrics.

Ladies and Gents, the pictures don't even do justice to the lovely colors of these fabrics. If you are in the market for some lovely prim or neutral colored fabrics, you have got to check out her blog where she lists some of her newest goodies.  http://www.dixiesamplar.com/

Also, keep an eye out on her blog for a Fall/Harvest/Halloween exchange coming up. This will be the ONE exchange I will participate in this Autumn. I can't wait for the change in the seasons!!

What the beautiful fabrics your blogging friend has done- I love the soft rustic shades! :) I wonder if they are coffee/tea dyed?!

I think your experiment with the flash is cool! I seldom use one - it never seems to "help" much!

Looks like a lot of "real estate" to stitch up!!

What beautiful fabrics! You will make lovely creations with them, I'm sure!
I am pretty new to blogging and I just signed up for that exchange! I've never done one before, but I've read about them and they look fun, so I guess I'll just jump right in!
