Merry Mushrooms

Home

I knew I was 'home' when I saw these fabrics.

Here's what Windham Fabrics says about the

Merry Mushroom Collection:

(I read this after I ordered it.) Am I the Mom? I still don't think I'm that old.

"Merry Mushrooms reminiscent of the 1970's hippy style of peace and love.
This line will bring back memories for mom, and younger quilters will recognize the fashion trend. We've updated the colors but left intact the organic shapes. See if you can find the hidden fairy - it's magic!"

I searched for a picture of my mushroom smock or my pants with the mushroom pockets, but no luck.

That led to my girls looking through my scrapbook.

Daughter: "Oh look, you're wearing a skirt."

"Honey, those are pants." We laughed so hard, had tears in my eyes.

"I told you we had those smocked dresses."

We saw the pre-smocked fabric at Joann's this summer, I just rolled my eyes at it, can't go there.

We've got charms, fat quarters and yardage in the store.

I can embrace mushrooms, but not the smocked fabric,

plaid shirts and argyle sweaters...yet.
