Even the packaging was awesome! |
Oh my days - what a fabric feast I am having!! My package from The Village Haberdashery arrived this morning and I squealed with excitement - the poor postman made a hasty retreat!! I couldn't resist opening it just to PEAK inside and can you believe it I actually waited until I got home for lunch to spread the contents out and drool!! Such self constraint, yes? Even the packaging it arrived in was yummy (can they make that into a fabric??!!). Here are some photos of the pure fantastic-ness that I now have in to play with all weekend.
A {few} Kona solids, some thread and some fun bird fabric. |
Oh yes - some Ruby Star typewriters! |
And here is the whole lot in a yummy-scrummy stack. Lucky me! |
On Sunday I'll be checking out The Stitch & Craft Show in London. There will be a display of some of the quilts that have been made for the Olympians who will be participating in the London games this summer. I can't wait to see these and get some ideas and inspiration.
So, I will catch you later - I'm off to admire my new fabrics [thanks again Annie]!
P.S. Tomorrow is National Quilt Day!! How will you celebrate it?
You're the first to blog about the packaging (that I've seen)and that made my day! In fact the design was inspired by fabric - Puti de Pome bubbles. See it here: http://www.purlsoho.com/purl/products/item/8544-Putidepome-Bubbles
ReplyDeleteToo cool :) I love that you designed your own bags inspired by a yummy bit of fabric. You have added some real special touches to your shop which makes it very nice to shop from and look at. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteGood haul! I just ordered the typewriter bundle from Annie - couldn't resist ;)
