St. Patrick’s Day Fabric from JoAnn

Hi everyone! This weekend is St. Patrick’s Day weekend. Even though I probably won’t do much to celebrate St Patrick’s Day (I don’t drink what-so-ever), I will be indulging in listening to Celtic music.

Something I am thinking about this year is what to do with two pieces of St. Patrick’s Day inspired fabric. I purchased then the same time as the Valentine’s Day fabric I talked about in a different post. (You can read it here) I found both holiday fabric during a recent clean out of my things. I like the St. Patrick’s Day fabric a lot, so I decided to talk about it in a post.

Here are the two fabric…

The first one is clearly St. Patrick’s Day inspired. It has shamrocks all over it and has a green, white, and gold color pallet to it. It also has plaid (or tartan) designs all over it (Including the white portion) and gold metallic shamrocks…

As for the other fabric, it is a green leafy pattern. Sadly, the close up photograph of the fabric didn’t show the true colors of the fabric. To see what the true colors of the fabric is, please look at the first photograph in this post.

Anyway, here is what the leaf pattern design looks like…

I purchased both fabrics from JoAnn around, if not at the same time as when I purchased the Valentine’s Day fabric. At that time, I had an idea to make myself some sort of a dress. Sadly, all the designs I could come up with looked too much like Ms Frizzle from The Magic School Bus. I like Ms Frizzle’s fashion, but I don’t want to wear it myself. So, I scrapped all the ideas and put the fabric away into storage until I was ready to use it.

Today, things have changed since I purchased the fabric. I now need more bedding and throw pillow covers as well as fabric for other home decor and sewing related projects. As of this post, I am not ready to move forward starting new projects, but I am still thinking about it. I can see myself using this fabric for throw pillows or a new quilt. I still really like the fabric designs and I want to incorporate them into hand made seasonal decor. I just don’t know what that decor will actually be! Right now, I want to focus on finishing all my works in progress, and make myself some new spring/summer clothes, instead of starting all new projects.

 

Well, that’s all for now! Thank you for reading!
