I must say that I think I have done my little bit this week to help the Economy!
This is my haul from my Quilt shop visits.
There are 2 Bliss fabrics to feed my soul. I was super pleased to add some yardage to my Bliss stash.
Just "a few" word prints (yes I have a little addiction) and some black prints, all of which I have plans for (see below). The blue was a great find and will be used to make my "Elsie Cabbage" by RicRac and that Tula Pink Print and matching solid will be my new bag. Hope to have this one made before next weekend.
A little while ago I added this pattern to my collection
"Steam Punk"
and I have been getting my daily fix of blocks on Instagram.
I can be found under " lilabellelane "
I have now decided that it is time I seriously start planning my own.
Here are my chosen fabrics so far.
I still want a Blue and possibly another red/orange word print.
I have ordered the templates so when they arrive I think I should bite the bullet, get over my fear of curves and start playing :)
and look what arrived today ...... my Xmas in July Parcel
I am a little stumped on who its from.
The envelope fell out when I opened it and a child quickly sealed it!
I am sure that all will be revealed on the 25th :o)
Thanks for popping by,
hugs Sharon

It's very important to support small business! Your new project looks great, I'm loving circles too.
ReplyDeleteYour machine is a Janome, isn't it? You can buy a specialty foot ( I have one) for sewing curves for Janomes that work in such a way that you don't need to use pins. If you are seriously going to be doing a lot of curves it might pay for you to think about getting one.

What a marvellous selection of fabrics. The design looks great.
ReplyDeleteWow!! Go shopper Sharon! I love your haul. Did you know that Lucy at Amitie can probably do you a little 'starter kit' for Steam Punk? I am going to get her to do me one for Midnight Oasis when I save up some more cash. She had a great one there the other day for Green Tea and I was soooo tempted.........
