Should have read the small print!

I'd been on the look out for some newsprint fabric.  Found some on Etsy but it was a full yard, so I went looking on Ebay and came across a fat quarter.  Fab, until when it arrived this morning and I spotted this amongst the lettering...,


not quite the statement I'm looking to make in my work!

That's so, so funny. Something I'd totally do! Love it!

Not funny, I would be bothered also. This is not what we're all looking for!

I always enjoy your posts!

That's really cute and funny! Hopefully you can cut that part out and still use the fabric for your project?! You always know how to make me laugh. Thanks!

hmm definitely not the best thing for a softie, for so many reasons!

Gem said...

At least you noticed it now and not when it had been used to make something, that could have been a bit embarassing xx

Apryl said...

This is so funny! I bought a fat quarter of this two, but I haven't noticed if it's got "that" on it! I can check and if it is rude word free, we could swap?

I bought this too... didn't realise one of my lavender hearts said 'prostitutes' & 'sexual persuits' on the back until after I'd finished it...OOPS! Think I'd better keep that one! x

Could open up a whole new market for you...

Sarah Payne said...

That is obviously for a different range of toys! Lol. Good job you were paying attention!

I bought this fabric a while ago too. I have not used it yet either. Maybe it would be suitable on the underside of a Vixen? Or a cat?

I didn't even realize that they sold racy fabric, whew.

Ive got that fabric or similar and it has the phrase 'sexual perversions' on it - had to put buttons etc over that bit!!

Julienne said...

Dotty said...

I wonder if you could tipex out the words "become a sex" and just have "how to object"! :)
But such a funny fabric.
