Contemplating some seasonal craft activities. Is it possible to be addicted to tana lawn? I didn’t realise quite how much I had amassed until I delved into the depths of the fabric stash. . . .

In the 80’s, one could purchase tana lawn in fabric stores in somewhat larger cities the US. In the 90’s, I could only find it in Manhattan. Now I have to mail order it. I have samples that have been in my stash for years. I made skirts with it in the 80’s, and now have a hibernating quilt made from my old lawn skirts. I do feel that it is ideal in a little girl’s smocked dress or a lady’s blouse, however…

I am still working from some ends my grandmother gifted me 10 years ago. I have one new piece that I haven’t been able to cut into for two years. The stuff is like gold to me. I think I was born into/with the addiction, but also a sense of scarcity. What a rich collection you have!

I purchased a ton of scrap bags on ebay and made a Kaffe Fassett stamp quilt. Or rather made the top…it still hasn’t made it onto the quilting frame yet :( I love, love, love Tana lawn. One day my quilt will be done!

Mmmm, tana lawn. I love the patterns, but when I meet it in person, I realise that I forget how light it is. I still haven’t found the right project to justify buying some. (And the premium price helps me to avoid acquiring some ‘because’.)

I have the one on the far left, the coral sprigs. Not sure what it’s official name is. I got it in London last year. If I was closer to Liberty I would have quite the stash as well!

I am sure it is possible to be addicted to Tana Lawn. I had a serious habit as a teenager that has only been tempered by the fact that we now live nowhere near a stockist (I like to stroke it before I buy).
