More From Mood Fabrics

In a previous post, I told you about my visit to Mood Fabrics, in New York city.  It housed a HUGE array of fabrics, notions, and trims.  Like these white ones:  (Click any image for a larger view.)

few white trims

(I saw an awesome trim of what was probably rhinestones, that was $159/yd!  But, my photo didn’t turn out.)

What did I buy?  Less than you might imagine, since the minimum cut was 1/2 yard.  (I usually purchase 1/4 yard.)  Still, I found a few remnants to purchase.  The sheer one
is a Marc Jacobs fabric.  The gridded one is a very heavy vintage fabric, meant for
shoes or purses.  But the two layers can be pulled apart to make it lighter. 
I intend to paint over it with some transparent paint.

There was a display board showing several Project Runway designs and the
fabrics from which they were made.

I enjoyed this side trip!
