Amaranth Purple

There was a package for me at the post office today and I was surprised to see it was from Timmel Fabrics , not because I didn’t order something, but because I hadn’t expected it so quickly.  I couldn’t wait to get home and open it, and in fact I was opening it almost immediately after walking in the door.  Poor DH wanted me to do something, saw I was opening the package, saw it was fabric, and said "that puts me in my place".  Oh well.

Here is what I got:Anthropologieifyoupleasefabrictimme

It is a wonderful purple cotton lycra jersey.  When I saw it on the website, and noted the pantone # (yummy, 19-3526, my favorite shade of purple) I knew it was exactly what I wanted to knock off the Anthropologie "If You Please" dress.

Julie did tell me it was back-ordered and would be a week or so before it came in.  All I can say is that week passed very quickly and I haven’t even ordered the pattern yet. 

More shopping for me.  (I’m not complaining).
