I was super lucky to get my hands on a whole bunch of the yet to be released Far Far Away III Heather Ross fabric! The photos I'm posting today were taken with my iPhone but I will take better, more detailed photos over the weekend and add them soon. I won't be selling these but have more than enough for myself and I want to get some samples in the mail this week to my fabric friends. There are a few ways for me to send you some.
#1 Comment here. I will send samples of both weights to the first 3 people to comment. Then I'll draw 3 more people from the remaining comments on Wednesday 5/11 to send more samples too. Be sure to tell me your favorite print in your comment so I can send it to you if you win!
#2 Swap with me on Flickr. I have an ISO list in my profile. For all my swaps this week (including the ones I already have pending) I will send you some samples in addition to our even swap.
#3 Buy something from my Etsy shop. Every purchase between yesterday 5/5 and Monday 5/9 (hadn't to shorten time as I'm running low) will come with some samples of these new Heather Ross fabrics.
Now for a brief review. The lighter weight is my favorite! It's nice and thin with wonderful drape. The thicker weight is comparable to Rabbits & Racecars but not exactly the same feel. It is less scratchy than FFA2. Upon first look, the girls with horses in the yellow colorway appear to have gray hair. The closer I look at it there is a little warmth to the "gray" giving it a somewhat sandy look. That's how I see it, unless my eyes are playing tricks on me. I'll get some close up photos asap.

ReplyDeleteOh Dear, I'm late:(
ReplyDeletei wish i would have bought this listing when i had the chance!!
ReplyDeleteI would love some--love the girls with the horses (any colorway)!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you make with these fabrics.
ReplyDeleteThe blue and yellow dandelions are making me drool!!
ReplyDeleteI am loving these fabrics. Thank you so much for sharing and for the reviews of it too. I am loving the blue snow white fabric, but all of it is really beautiful! Can't wait until we can buy it!!! Great Score Kori!!
ReplyDeleteOooh, how lucky for those first three ladies! I'm thrilled you got some, too. And you're always so good about the fabric karma! I'm pawing at the dandelions on my monitor (unlike the real-life dandelions that will soon grow in my yard.) Thanks, Kori!
ReplyDeleteThose look lovely and thank you for the review. I have been on the fence as to ordering as the feel of FFA 2 was not my favorite.
ReplyDeleteCute cute fabrics!!!
ReplyDeleteMichelle
I'm jealous of your fabric score! I'd love to get a sample of any of the lighter weight prints, so I know what it feels like. I'm offmto check out your iso list now too!
ReplyDeleteWow, lucky you...the fabric is beautiful. And thanks for reviewing it for us. I love the girls with the horses...perfect for my daughters. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeletenice haul!!! i was contemplating buying that bundle too but ultimately decided not to, lol! can't wait to see what you'll make with these lovelies! i love the laundry line print and guitars. thanks for paying forward the fabric karma!
ReplyDeleteThey look so wonderful! What a lucky buy :D I'm split on this range, but I think the girls with horses would look fabu with West Hill while the other fairytale inspired prints would look spiffy with the other lines (FFA 1&2 + Mendocino). I think my favorite print(s) so far is the pink Snow White or the peach girls with horses.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your generosity Kori!
ReplyDeleteI adore the Sleeping Beauty on yellow.
What the what!? How did you end up with these!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great review! I can't wait until these become available to the genera public!
awesome score kori!
ReplyDeletethose blues are stunning! I bought the horses on the spoon...sew cute! maggieb!
ReplyDeletehi kori! i really love the laundry print and not sure if i'm partial to a particular colorway even. so cute!
ReplyDeleteHow absolutely lovely! I cannot wait to get my hands on some of this - how in the world were you lucky enough to get this?! I'm especially partial to any of the snow white prints and the flowers on blue :)
ReplyDeleteKori, you are too sweet to share your fun new fabrics! And I'm so glad that you decided to get them because you are such a guru of fabric and I can trust you to make all the right comparisons.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy that the lighter weight is so lovely! Picking a favorite is a bit of a Sophie's Choice, isn't it? I don't know how I'm going to avoid a major fabric freak out when they become widely available!
ReplyDeleteI just love the Snow White prints. All the colors are so pretty. Fun, fun fabrics. Thanks for giving us a look. No wait.....I just looked again and think I like the laundry line fabrics the most. Uggg difficult to choose. All are so cute.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love those little girls playing with the horses, the dandelions and the guitars! Pretty fabrics :)
ReplyDeleteWow how cool for you to get those fabrics early! I love the tunic you made - so cute. We love pink here and I like the clothes on the line but would be grateful for anything if I win :).
ReplyDeleteCute fabrics - I love her new horse prints!
ReplyDeleteOh so cute... I need some horsies!!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun Kori! I love the guitars and horses the most but those dandelions are so cute in blue too!
ReplyDeleteThank so much for the awesome sharing! Love that the Snow White prints (especially the laundry!) made it to this collection! I was so bummed they didn't make the cut last time.
