Well, hmmm....could be they might have just forgotten to call, but just in case they didn't, CS if you want to call the Venice store and the Bradenton store it wouldn't be too much out of the way for me to pick it up for you if need be.

Auryn

I am at work right now
but if you havent found it locally and want to give a call to the joanns down here by me I can stop by and pick it up for you if they have it.
Their number is

Auryn I just called them and they have none, but I have a few more leads to look into..

Anna, Venice doesn't have any nor does Bradenton.

According the to the Venice computer there was some back at the Tampa store where I got it to start with, so called them up and nada.







Auryn

Damn,
I am sorry you are having such a hard time with finding this fabric.

I'm sorry too. Been there. Keeping my fingers crossed it all works out. You make such lovely things, it would be a treat to see your green silk gown.

I'm hoping to have it done in time for Barf but we shall see.

OK!  They called!   I have 7 yards being transferred to my store which should be here by Wednesday.   I think we had a particularly sympathetic store manager here so they are bringing it in from who knows where!  This was fun!   I love these boards!!!  I'll PM when it arrives.    I may just have to make the trip to BARF!

Auryn

Yay for great fabric finds and sympathetic store managers (a rare thing indeed)
Barf 2012 is probably going ot be the only faire we go to next year- tight funds and all.

We should all try to coordinate and meet up.

Alright Amy!

That would be fun, Auryn. :) If I make it up to BARF this season I'll be sure to let you all know.

On a side note, We love BARF. I've been there the last two year.  I'll be looking for that Emerald Gown in 2012
Why do I feel like I've worn something like this before?

amy

One step closer!   Manager just called to say they have the yardage at my local store.  Just need to get it into my little paws!    (Oh lord don't let me arrive and find out it is the wrong fabric and we have some hideous apple green slippery stuff!)

CenturiesSewing

Huzzah! Time to finalize my kirtle and bodice pattern then.

Cilean thanks for the offer  :) Amy hunted it down and was able to snag the yardage I need.
