Fabric Shopping On Holiday

Inspiring fabrics

I am sure I am not the only one who does this:  Buying fabric while on vacation.  My luggage was stuffed on the way home.  This time I thought I'd share one of my favorite spots to indulge this desire.  In my opinion, there is no better style of print than the Hawaiian style.  I can't get enough of it.  I am not from Hawaii, either.  Love it- love it -love it.  Love it when it's just yardage, love it when it's a shirt, love it vintage, love it as a dress, love it on any age or size of man and especially on a good hula dancer.

If you are interested and find yourself in Hawaii, my recommendation is to seek out a good fabric store, such as Fabric Mart.  Inexpensive fabric is just a bonus it's the selection that is so fun.  They are also online but not going into the shop is like  reading a description of a "Loco Moco" and not ever eating a plate of it.  (FYI: Loco Moco  ).  Make a day of Hawaiian comfort fabric and Hawaiian comfort food.  Fabric Mart in Maui is in Kahului.  Loco Moco is everywhere.
