I love United Textiles for home decorating fabric but it is a hit or miss place due to the fact that they get essentially what I term the left overs. My curtains were my third choice fabric since they did not have enough of my first and second choice fabric and could not get it. <br />I have looked at a few online sources, and will probably go with them when I ultimately purchase fabric for my curtains in my bedroom. I have a specific look and style of fabric in my mind and my local sources do not have much available in it. <br /><br />In terms of what I do to stay busy, so far I have started cleaning and organizing the house. Though this does not sound fun, it does make you feel productive. I am already joining my local Junior League, which is keeping me busy with our Provisional Project. <br />The other thing that keeps me busy is my hobbies of cooking and sewing. This week I have made three different recipes that I have frozen portions for my husband to take with him during the week. I also have finished smocking one design for a friend and I hope to tackle making a dress with it in the immediate future. I also have a few other sewing projects on the horizon.
