Looking....

Some of these trims are hard to find. Went to HL today and found only 2 types of black lace (no double edged - boo) and NO BLACK POLYESTER TAFFETA. This is what I HATE about Hobby Lobby. The have a huge floral dept that covers an equivalent of 2-3, and now the fabric department is not what is used to be, even though whenever I complain via e-mail they just BS me about it....grrr....they used to be my main supplier, but not so much anymore....bad enough I have to cough up $80 with shipping for 10 yards of navy wool on eBay...so it looks like eBay is my best friend now. Also looks like I might have to resort to going to Jo-Ann's.

Spent so far at HL and Wal-Mart:

10 yards of silky black ribbon - $2.50
2 spools (2 yards total) of 2" wide double edged eyelet lace - $5
10 yards of black gimp/flexible braid (all they had) - $4.40 @ 44 cents a yard!!!
black soutache (unknown amount) - $1.60 per roll, as is
white bias tape - $1.40

Also bought on eBay:

1 yard black/navy silk dupioni - $10 with shipping
