Fabric Shopping

Good evening.  I thought I would come and post whilst my DH is watching the football (I am not into sport but he is)

Anyhow thought I would show you what I have been buying this week.

In no particular order I bought this gorgeous fabric from Fabric Circus or you can find them on Facebook too.  I am planning on making a couple of skirts for my upcoming holiday.  The cow print is to make my friend a pencil case.  And see that on the right in the box? that was a little surprise I received with my fabric, I won't tell you what it is in case you place an order with them.

I also bought this stunning fabric from Groovy Funky Things and am planning on making a maxi dress again for my holiday from the fabric on the right. Do you recognise the one in the middle?  That's the one I made the bag from that I showed you yesterday

Now last but by no means least check out this picture below my May "treat parcel" from this fantastic lady at Lemon Drop Fabrics And Threads

It is a monthly surprise, you pay £15 a month and you receive a fantastic surprise parcel once a month, you don't have to have it every month if you don't want to, but why would you not.  It is a little treat to myself every month, lovely fabrics and lots of little extras plus you also get links sent to you for online patterns.  I love it and I am already looking forward to my next months treat.  It is a great idea for both beginners (like myself) or experienced sewers.  If you want to sign u, then just drop her a message through Facebook.

I also bought some gorgeous fabrics from there too but I haven't taken a picture (silly me) but believe me they are gorgeous, some lovely pink and black unicorn fabric which I am planning on making into a quilt for my Great Niece and also some dinosaur fabric for my Grandson.

I don't work Fridays so tomorrow I plan on getting the housework done, then nipping to see my cousin as I am making her wedding invitations (yes I do that too), then home to sew.

I will be back with my makes over the weekend, wish me luck, I think I will need it lol.  I am definitely a trier!!
