late night browsing

It used to be that I could fall asleep the moment my head hit the pillow. I could sleep anytime and anywhere. Lately, however, that's not been the case. To ease my recent sleepless in Star Valley troubles, I find myself browsing my favorite online stores and dreaming of buying everything I see. Last night I kept going back to this...
I cannot get enough of these bowls! The color scheme is simply delightful - shades of blues and greens and a little purple to boot. And, at $29.95 for a set of 5, the price is pretty delightful as well.
I could just live in a Crate&Barrel store. Heavenly!

Also :: thank you for sharing your favorite sewing blogs and your tried-and-true tips and tricks. I've loved everything I've seen so far. Now here's another question -- do any of you have online shops where you buy cute, trendy fabric? I'm not finding much that I love in the fabric store here in town (but hey, at least they have a fabric store here, right?)

I love those bowls too! I have to say, though - the colors are even more deep & pretty in the store. They just look so gorgeous! They have matching measuring spoons, too - I bought a set of the blue bowls and measuring spoons as a wedding gift last month.

The bowls are cute, but I'm going to talk fabric for a minute. I love fabric a little too much. In fact I would spend all my money on running clothes and fabric if I had a choice. Annnnyway. For quilting (and little girl skirts) there's a website www.modabakeshop.blogspot.com that uses all Moda pre-cuts. And they are fab-ulous! They are sold on-line at the Fat Quarter Shop.
Logan has a really cute fabric shop on Main Street, and I love, love the Quilt Crossing in Boise if you are ever there stock up!
Heather Bailey and Amy Butler have lots of cute fabrics on-line as well, I've never purchased on-line only in stores, but it's worth looking at. Good luck, I'm excited you are sewing! It's by far my favorite craft! Here's my craft blog with some projects/links on it: www.live2craft.blogspot.com

i hear ya, i used to fall asleep no problem but i now blame it on having a child!

etsy.com is a great place to find trendy fabric. i know i've come across several trendy fabric shops but don't know them off hand so search fabric and i'm sure you'll find them!

Soooooo, I know a REALLY cute place to find ADORABLE & TRENDY fabric but it would require you to come to the little town of Kimberly, ID. I'M SERIOUS!!!! We have a fabric store here that's called The Quilt Barn (I know....only here in Kimberly....& maybe Star Valley) :) would a cute fabric store have the word BARN in it. But, I'm serious about it having THE MOST ADORABLE FABRIC!!!! We will have to go when you guys make it here!! You'll love it!!!!

P.S. I L.O.V.E. those bowls too!!!!!
