Did I really need more fabric?

Ths week has been a little bit of an indulgence.




A great backing for my square eyes quilt, and a spotty geen binding fabric!


I have gone all feed sacky again after seeing a great pattern in a very old American patchwork magazine. These repros are all moda.


These can be added to the mix from my stash.Some of these are original from a few bundles I bought on Etsy a few years ago.



And a bit of what you fancy- does you good,  so this is Flea Market Fancy  by Denise Schmidt. I added the bright orange as it went soooo well! Not sure what I am going to do with this but i would like to come up with a hand sewn project to take travelling to Norway with me  in a couple of weeks. 


The house had a good clean this morning so I am awarding myself time out for good behaviour- cutting mat here I come!

  1. Love the oranges and grays...I went to Joanne's Fabrics shop yesterday and came home with 3 new pieces...going to put the "pinks" into a table mat for Valentines decorating...then bought a rug backing plastic mesh to try out a rag tied rug...I always have too many projects in my head...can't wait to see what you do with your new stash!

    1. Dont get me started on Jo ann fabrics- I have to say I envy you living in the States when it comes to fabric stores! I havent been over to visit since last February, so I have severe withdrawal symptoms! Cant wait to see your rug!

      Good luck!xx

    1. Orange is not really my colour but having said that I am so often drawn to it! It is such a vibrant colour. Hx
