Once upon a time, Kate Spain found out I lived in Japan and Tweeted me to tell me about her friend who lives in Japan and has a fabric store. After I got over the fact that Kate Spain knew where I lived, I checked out this store – Red Coconut, noted that she sold Kate Spain and other Moda fabrics and good prices, then promptly forgot about it as life got busy.
One fortuitous day, I called out on Twitter if anyone still knew where I could find Terrain precuts, as they’re becoming a rare breed. A few days later, I had an email from Ms Spain’s friend in Japan telling me that she does indeed still have some Terrain charm packs, as well as Joy if I was interested. And she could offer me a discount if I paid via bank transfer, given that we live in the same country.
Ladies and gentlemen, I have a new Kate Spain dealer.
Look at that 5″ goodness *that’s what she said*. Along with these beauties came two XL fat quarters (50cm x 50cm) that I’ve tried to use to make this new package of insulated batting look more attractive… Try hards. They know they can’t compare.
One last gratutitous shot with a Marmalade mini charm pack I got last week but somehow missed in the photo shoot.
I’ve already informed my Dealer that I will be wanting to get my greedy, addicted hands on a fat quarter bundle of Kate’s new line in January – Honey Honey.
And she lived happily ever after.

Oh wow – love the Moda FQ!! I can’t wait for Honey Honey to come out either. It’s going to be a popular line.

Oooh so pretty!! Yay for new fabric!!
Fiona @findingfifth says
You make me laugh…’a dealer’ indeed! I must go and check out such strangely named fabric store – or does ‘red coconut’ sound good in Japanese?

I love mini charm packs! It’s like playing with dolls’ house furniture! Good find!

HaHa Alyce – it is like an addiction, isn’t it? I call it my fabric fix. The only problem is that I have learned it isn’t a fix at all – buying fabric just makes me want to buy more fabric!!! That is the first “that’s what she said” joke I have read on a quilty blog – my kids would be impressed 😉
Catherine says
Wow Alyce, it’s good to know the right people;-) Look forward to seeing what you’re going to do with these!
