Wow, thanks for all the pictures! love everything! I have a question. does the new Sparkle and Shine fabric have a glimmer to it? just curious. Have fun today!
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed your updates, Carla. Many thanks for taking the time to share with us all back home.
ReplyDeleteHi Marilyn - - no the fabric does not have a glimmer to it. It is named after a holiday paper collection that will be released in late fall with which the fabric will coordinate.
