High class finger fuzzies
Oct. 29th, 2011 06:38 amI decided that I just *had* to make something or other out of the new Tissavel fabric I got in this week. I love the stuff so much. It's amazingly soft, and the yellow-orange in particular is a fabric I have dreamed about. (Literally. I had a dream once where I found fabric just like that, and I was so happy. Yes, I'm probably too much into my work.)
Anyway, I was making some finger fuzzies for the market today, so I went ahead and made some from the new fur. It doesn't take much, so there's still plenty left for more important projects. :) And I did the math. Even though the fabric is $150+ a yard, I only need to charge $1 extra per finger fuzzy for them to be economical. Yeah, you can get a LOT of finger fuzzies out of a yard! Not that I will be making many more from this stuff. I have other things in mind for it.

The lavender one on the left is fabric I've had for a long time, the other two are the new fabric ones. :) They're $6 each, if I still have them left when I get back from the market this afternoon.

That would decrease the thrill of playing with them when they do come out of my church bag pencil case. But we love them when a particular someone gets antsy and fidgity and whiny (or more so than usual in church).
