New Fabric Range

We’ve got a fabulous new fabric range to tell you about. Its called Red Letter Day by talented designer Lizzy House.

What do you think? The Red Letter Day fabric collection is some of the cutest, most vibrant fabric I’ve seen in a long while. Its perfect for quilting and kids clothing (duck pajamas anyone?).

If you want to see how crafty peeps are using this fabulous fabric range, visit the Red Letter Day flickr pool. There are some amazingly talented people out there!

Lastly there is a FREE pattern using the Red Letter Day Fabric here.

Paula’s Weekender Bag.

Another clever customer. Paula has made this gorgeous Amy Butler Weekender Bag using pink and chocolate damask fabric.

Thanks for showing us Paula and good luck with your operation!!!

New goodies on the way.

Ordered some new lovelies for the shop today.

The Heather Ross “far, far away” beauties (even better in the flesh) are printed onto double gauze fabric. Lightweight. Wispy. Delightful.

Lots of slightly off the wall Japanese novelties including these piggies:

This echino bird fabric:

And this lovely fabric panel with woodland scene and wild animals:

This is but a taste of what is to come! Excited?

A feast of Blythe.

Was invited to join this fun group on Flickr- am so pleased, only thing is, I don’t have a Blythe (may have to rectify that!)

Oh, I’d sew her little frocks and knit her weeny scarves and cardigans and accesorise her with Mod wigs and mini ‘fros.

images originally from Tiny Haus, tibiloo.

I think these photos are so yum, is it weird to get fashion tips from Blythe?

Liberty.

Came across this gorgeous photo this evening on blog.freepeople.com

It’s a Purl Patchwork display showcasing new Liberty prints. I love the subtle gradation of colour, the prints, the use of embroidery hoops (not the first time I’ve seen it done, obviously but it just gets me every time!)
