I've been trying to be very good this year and not buy any new fabrics until I go to the Festival of Quilts this summer. However, sometimes things don't always go to plan ... When I went to my Guild meeting this week I was offered a bundle of Makower fabrics because I make charity quilts. I could choose from the Dinosaur or the Blues. I went for the blues - which is from their range called The Henley Studios - because it was age non-specific. However, I ended up being given one of each!! I reckon there are at least 2.5-3m of fabric in each bundle, so plenty for a good sized lap quilt.
Then we had our speaker for the evening, Kim Porter from Worn & Washed Fabrics. A company that takes recycled cotton fabrics and turns them into beautifully coordinated packs for patchwork. I just couldn't resist one of her packs in bright toybox colours :)
Some bright additions to your stash for sure. Sometimes getting new fabric really brings a fresh look to things.
ReplyDeleteJust discovered your blog. You are one busy lady and I enjoy seeing all your beautiful quilts. I especially like seeing the free motion quilting you do on them. Very nice. Makes me think there's hope for me too.
