Pink Swirls and Ends of Bolts

This pink and black bag marks the end of an era. I have loved this pink swirl fabric. I have made every conceivable bag, accessory, and do-dad out of this fabric in the last year. This is the end...of the bolt that is. I have no idea who the designer was or the company that printed it. You might think I would save selvage pieces of fabrics I love for re-order. Or spread sheet vendors I purchase from. Oh no, that would be too easy. That would be too organized. That would take away from the sheer joy of anxiously cracking open a box of fabric the moment it arrives on the doorstep, practically accosting the UPS man. There is no time to spread sheet vendor item numbers when you are running up a flight of stairs planning on where to cut to make that hobo bag lie on the diagonal.
Good-bye pink swirls. If I ever see you again on a bolt, I will snap you up.
