I broke down and splurged on a fat eighth bundle of Bonnie & Camille's "Daysail" line.
To be honest, I wasn't totally in love with all of the prints in the line, but the completionist in me demanded I buy the line in its' entirety. And I love Bonnie & Camille.
I've started to collect more fat eighth bundles vs. the fat quarter bundles I was inclined to purchase in the past. I would prefer a FQ bundle, but let's face it, they are freakin' expensive. So expensive that I'm basically priced out of buying any of the lines that I love.
Enter the fat eighth bundle.
Yes, you don't get as much fabric to play with. Yes, you have to think a little more outside the box with respect to using it in blocks and patterns, but it can be done. I think that the 9" width you get is enough to work with/around, whilst still being able to use an entire line of fabrics.
To be honest I wish more companies would do a pre-pack fat eighth bundle so that I could afford to use their fabric lines; charm packs and jelly rolls are not the easiest for me to work with (although I do try...).
And fat eighth bundles look good on the shelf. Heheh.
