The day after returning from FoQ I began to sort out the haul.
Would you like to see?
Some pieces from Sumatra from John Gillow’s stand
(there is a piece from Iran but it got wet and is drying out).
Fresh stocks of organza in the usual colours for Indian inspired work.
You didn’t think I could stay away from purple and pink forever did you?
Rusted cloth – because I know I could do it but time constrains mean I won’t.
Australian fabrics – now completes the set I have been collecting for two years and I can start two pieces to give a reminder of our trip – brights for DS and the others for DH and myself.
Rowan fabrics for a bed throw (gasp). Something to do whilst I mull over new creative ideas.
More pretty fabrics for another throw….
Well it is COLD up here in the winter all year.
Buttons….. I got carried away and forgot to add up the individual prices - they were the most expensive set of buttons I have every put in a bag!
Can a girl ever have too many printing blocks?
Pots and tubs restocked from AVG.
Just two threads from (C21st Yarns). Cotton (below) and silk (top).
My cousin recommended this blog and she was totally right keep up the fantastic work!
ReplyDeleteThanks for showing me what I was minding in your bags while you queued for the quilts! I am quite envious of what you managed to buy as, although I did spend quite a bit of money, I got home and realised that I had not gone back to the person selling the wonderful stamps. Nor did I have time to finish buying jade type greens for my nephew's wedding present quilt and a quick glance at a few websites this morning hasn't moved things on. It was great to see you and I think your shopping haul is magnificent.
ReplyDeleteI meant to look at the Indian Block stand, oh well, next year!
