A tea towel for Victoria's Tea Towel challenge on 15 Minutes of Play.
(After a couple weeks of looking for an interesting vintage tea towel in resale shops, I settled for this new one, based on a vintage design)
Some striped fabrics for my piece for the All About Me blog hop.
These textiles are the inspiration for these two projects. What comes first for you? The design idea or fabrics that whisper, "use me?"

Depends on the project. I'd say it's about 60/40 between projects where I had the idea and went and found the fabric, and projects where the fabric showed up and said: "make something!"
the striped fabric I was hoping to use just would not do what I wanted..I then found a great stripe that would work with my overall design idea for this blog hop..love yours!
I have seen your posts on the tea towel challenge. This looks like fun and very interesting. I am off to read about it. I love that towel!
I think most of the time the fabric speaks to me first. Not always, but a significantly larger percentage of the time.
