cleaning day

I bought over $100 in fabric today.  I plan on doing a lot of decorative stuff and start on halloween costumes with it.  However, I put a load of it in the washer and it all frayed....bad! argh!  so frustrating! lesson learned....account for shrinkage in the making of stuff, don't wash fabric first! It was so annoying to have to sit there and rip the ends of the fabric! Hopefully it won't do it the dryer too.   On the plus side I cleaned my sewing room and now I can start making things to decorate it! My room was a huge mess but now its all clean and I have a better Ironing board! Can't wait to go get started!
