Lots of fabric .....

Buying, that is.
There is a lovely fabric shop in a suburb not too far from my home. Limited patchwork fabrics, actually limited every type of fabric but lots of different types of fabric. You know what I mean, stretch, cotton, satins, silks, flannelette. Plus lots of lace, ribbon and fancy edging, flowers and lots of buttons. Now imagine a very small shop, I mean small, and crammed pack with all these beauties. I visited this emporium today with my gd to buy fabrics for our expectant gd and came away with a mixture of all of the above. I especially like the man who owns the shop and how he measures the fabric with a stick measuring a metre. This is what I purchased. Lots of baby sewing on the agenda.





During our grandies sleepover we have added to our veggie patch. Hopefully lots of fresh vegies for summer.




Hopefully I'll get to finish a mini I've been working on, on the weekend. Have a good weekend! Sharyn:)

How quaint. I actually remember fabric being measured with a stick. Lots of sweet sewing ahead for you Sharyn. How exciting. Hope the vegies produce well for you. The mini looks great. Love little Angel in the blue.
