Fun Fabric Finds

Today I took a little trip to Hobby Lobby to pick up some things for a couple projects I want to work on. I went to the fabric section and found some fabrics I want to use for making pumpkins. I found a tutorial here for making cute and very easy fabric pumpkins. So these are the fabrics I picked out to make the pumpkins with. I will post pics once they're finished!



I saw this fabric while I was looking around and I really liked it. I think I am going to make some throw pillows for my bed out of it. 
 I love the pattern on it, so pretty. Hopefully I will get around to making the pillows soon.

Just wanted to share that with ya.

    Cute! I can't wait to see how your pumpkins turn out.
    I love toile fabric those will make great pillows! I purchased some red toile last week, haven't decided yet if I'm going to use it in our family room or bedroom, but it will definitely be pillows.
    Have a great weekend!
