[DubaiSis]

I didn't buy much fabric for quilting while I was there. I had most of my clothes custom tailored (a HUGE perk of living in that part of the world), so I bought fabric regularly, but not calico-style cotton very often. Besides, that mountain of stash I have? It all went with me to Dubai. And for as much sewing as I did while I was there (a reasonable amount), I still brought a ton home. The difference is added to the stash was scraps from a couple ball gowns I had made. I don't know what I'm going to do with them, but some of it is beautiful so I couldn't make myself throw it out. Actually, one of the dresses I deconstructed in hopes of reconstructing it into a pretty chiffony skirt, but I've never made it to the reconstruction phase!
