Is there a Secret Fabric Homing Instinct?



“Perhaps there is some secret sort of homing instinct 
in books that brings them to their perfect readers. 
How delightful if that were true.” 
... Juliet to Dawsey
― Mary Ann Shaffer, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society



I like to think this true of fabric, too.

This half yard bundle jumped into my stash 
when I was looking for fabrics
to fussy cut for my POTC Obsession.

I had not read the book 
or watched the movie at that time.  
In fact, I had never heard of it.


I just fell in love with this focus floral!

It is a called "Juliet."

I just had to look for more ...



Soon this lovely Guernsey Kit found its way into my stash.


Then I found these lovelies at
where they wisely tuck a few charms in with your order.

These charms are from Caroline by Brenda Riddle


Here is my lovely Brenda Riddle stash now.

The Guernsey jelly roll is intended for a Jelly Roll Rug

The Caroline bundle with its lovely brown fabric is destined for 
the pretty bird quilt pattern


I love these fabrics!

How delightful to think that fabrics may have a honing instinct to find their perfect home.

Do you believe fabrics find their way to you?
