Have you tried eating Sushi made out of laser cut seaweed (nori)?
The shapes the cut it in look exactly like Sashiko.
I have to figure out how to get some of this. Too fun.
Am I avoiding a confession that I picked up a little more Liberty of London fabric from Purl Soho? Ok, maybe, but hard to hide that fact with that glorious photo up above.
Do you collect Liberty of London fabric? Could you pick a favorite? What do you to to catalog it? Have you ever accidentally bought the same fabric twice? I am not sure if I've done that with Liberty (thank goodness, due to the price tag).

Oh yes I do love Liberty... soft, rich, wonderful. Pricey. I haven't collected it exactly but you've now planted that idea! I purchased some yardage a few years ago in London - a print I haven't really seen since - used it as a backing and have been using the scraps ever since. I will check out Purl Soho this summer!
Hi Marisa, yes, I have my own Liberty Lawn collection. I love the look of that little stash you have up there - such delightful colours/patters.
I would say my favourites would be any of the paisleys, and the tiny florals with that red'blue/white/ tiny bits of green - and i think you have some of it in the pile.
they are such evocative fabrics, aren't they? Well known English quilter Diedre Amsden started a whole career on her aquired collection of Liberty Lawns, and developed her 'Colourwash QUilts' technique using them. Enjoy using yours - though I bet you have a few pangs making those first cuts!
Gosh im falling in love with liberty. Your not helping! :)
I just started collecting... Probably got the idea from your lovely fabrics!
