Not a lot of sewing has been happening around here. I have managed to finish a few custom orders and that is it. Yesterday we all went to Bunbury and my friend Ali came as well so it was kind of a mad rush to get everything done. We did manage to have a nice lunch and it was good to have 3 adults for the 2 children especially when they can spot a postcard size picture of Dorothy the Dinosaur at over 100 metres.
I found some wonderful fabric in Textile Traders, they had lots of Freespirit Fabrics, Robert Kaufmann and Michael Miller.
Spotlight had some 100% cotton spotty fabric - how could I resist red and white spots!
I saw this fantastic idea from JoJo at Stardustshoes for framing these great postcards from applehead. I absolutely had to steal the idea and I framed three for the girls' room.
ooooh! Your fabric looks yummy. Those framed postcards look great too. I couldn't bear to send mine to anyone. They're just too cute.
ReplyDeleteHello! Love the fabric! I just ordered some fabric from Z & S Fabrics (first foray into tote making and sewing in a very long time!) I must get my 2 Applehead cards framed! I love them!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely pile of fabric! You know, that heather ross fish print is quite hard to get hold of online now.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I was in spotlight yesterday, too. Gotta love the price on their poplin!
The fabrics look wonderful. I love spotty fabrics, and I have the same large spot red fabric, although mine is a dark purple color to line Isabelle's beach bag, when I get around to knitting it up.
