I hadn&#8217;t been to this store before (sorry no photos), but I had been to their booth at PIQF. The store was crammed with fabric, but in an organized way. I looked at fabric for dress for next Grand Parlor and some upcoming events. They had an excellent selection of Kaffe Fassett fabrics.<\/p>\n<p>I looked very seriously at a couple of Kaffe prints for dresses, but didn&#8217;t end up buying any. I did end up seeing the Pokemon fabric from which I promised to make a pillowcase for the YM&#8217;s new roommate.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33452\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33452\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/DSCN1310sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-33452\" src=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/DSCN1310sm-300x187.jpg\" alt=\"Golden State Sewing fabrics\" width=\"300\" height=\"187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/DSCN1310sm-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/DSCN1310sm-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/DSCN1310sm.jpg 908w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33452\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Golden State Sewing fabrics<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I bought a few things.

The other fabrics are fat quarters. The two Kaffes are the ones I am still considering for dresses.

I had never seen that print in other colors. While I like the blue best, the red and grey are nice, too. The grey is a little too dark for the Flying Geese, but I have to admit to trying it out on a few FGs anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Friend Julie <a href=\"https:\/\/highfibercontent.blogspot.com\/2016\/08\/shopping-row-by-row.html\" target=\"_blank\">wrote about the shop on her blog<\/a> this week as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The other day I had to go to Santa Clara to take the YM to a one day job.
