A small fraction of the hoard |
Do you know what's strange? I don't know the foggiest thing about Etsuko Furuya, the designer of all this yummy fabric. Isn't that odd? Other fabric designers have blogs, we see them in magazines, etc., but Etsuko remains a mystery. I did find a photo of her here, but not much else.
If you speak/read Japanese, would you mind giving us a quick translation of her profile on her web site?
Do you have a certain fabric designer you compulsively hoard? No judgment here - I completely understand.
Okay, I'm going to be scarce for the next few weeks. In the meantime -
Happy Holidays to you and your family!
And may you find some time to do a little stress-free crafting ;)

I don;t read or speak Japanese but thanks to Google Translate, here is a rough translation.
