Well, Maine has had an easy winter up until now.
\nAnd then the last week of January hit;
\nthe temperatures plummeted,
\nthe wind speeds rose,
\nand it has been bitingly cold out.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
SNOW AND SEA FOG<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

<\/p>\n

Still not a lot of snow on the ground,
\nbut winter is really here.<\/p>\n

This is normally the time when
\npeople head out for a vacation.
\nBut, not this year.<\/p>\n

So, I thought I would do a
\nTravel Fabric blog post.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"TROPICAL
TROPICAL TRAVEL FABRIC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One of my favorite travel fabrics is the
\nTROPICAL DOCUMENTARY FABRIC.<\/p>\n

I love the mix of birds and palm trees, intermixed with the writing from letters and postcards, and the stamps. It reminds me of travel from days gone by, when people took boats and trains to travel to far off places, sending home letters and postcards, with exotic stamps. An adventure, to be sure!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Not exactly in the same light,
\nthe Vintage Photograph Fabric
\nalso evokes the past.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"TRAVEL
TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPH FABRIC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

So many images of far away places- the Taj Mahal, the Great Pyramids, the carvings on Easter Island, as well as the large cities of the world are shown.\u00a0 I love the horses from the Camargue, as well the flock of geese.<\/p>\n

For those who love Paris,
\nwe have several different fabrics.
\nBut, perhaps a map would be a good thing to have!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"PARIS
PARIS MAP FABRIC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Slightly funky in feel is the stylized Map of Paris fabric.
\nMany of the famous historic places are shown.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thinking about Italy?
\nWhat would a trip to Italy be without a stop over in Venice?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"VENICE
VENICE PAINTING FABRIC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I love this fabric- the colors, the pattern,\u00a0 and the fabric itself. This is a good fabric for stretching and hanging- sort of a faux painting of a faux painting! The colorful one looks like an antique work. The blue one does as well, but has a very different feel, as the colors are cool tones of blue and neutrals.
\n <\/p>\n

\"BLUE

For those who are up for venturing further afield,
\nthere is the African Travel Poster Fabric.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"AFRICAN
AFRICAN SAFARI TRAVEL POSTER FABRIC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This showcases a variety of posters of African animals. Done in neutral tones, it is a good one to mix in with other exotic animal fabrics. It is has a graphic look, and the different writing on the posters adds interest.<\/p>\n

One other travel fabric bears mentioning-
\nthe Retro Tropical Island fabric.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"TROPICAL
TROPICAL SOUTH SEA FABRIC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This has small islands with palms and out rigger canoes. But, the lettering encompasses the Caribbean as well as the north Atlantic and north Pacific oceans. Even so, the feel is definitely retro South Pacific!<\/p>\n

So, if you are stuck at home, and need a break,
\nthink of doing a small project with one of our travel fabrics.<\/p>\n

It might be what you need for a bit of a lift!<\/p>\n

They are in the<\/p>\n

TRAVEL FABRIC category.<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Also take a look at the<\/p>\n
