Let me know if any of you try it and what you think.

Now for the websites! It was only a matter of time before someone came up with this.
It's a "bakery" using the Moda "ingredients". There are lots of free patterns using the Moda pre cut baked goods. Go and see what you think!

I found another site that I use all the time! Ever need that perfect piece of fabric but are not having any luck finding it? Tried searching everywhere but no luck? Now you can use this website. Just type in what you are looking for and they do the work for you! Type in a description or the fabric name and it will come up with thumbnail shots of fabric fitting your specs and many, many shops that carry just what you are looking for! (Hey Jacquie check out this cool owl fabric)

And lastly try this site for great sale pricing. Check out their sale part. They usually don't have a lot of the yardge but the price is usually HALF what you usually pay!!

So that's it for now. Go and check out those websites.
