I just discovered Splash fabrics and couldn't wait for my order to arrive. I got about six different cuts, and am making waterproof bags. I adore how these fabrics feel - soft and pliable. I'll be making a cape to throw on over my down coats or other wool jackets for the half-mile trek to my mailbox. I wanted to try smaller things first and not commit to a large bit of yardage if I didn't like it - but I love it and can' wait to make more useful, pretty, waterproof items. I'm done with stiff raincoats, and my heavy duster. Here in NY state, we get as much precipitation as Seattle, it's just colder here and half of it comes as snow. But we have had June weather with 22" of rain before.
