My haul

I got some lovely sewing things yesterday, spoiling myself and my girl.

I finally added this book to my collection (quite new, but I wanted it since I first read about it!)

I also picked up my Sherbert Pips fat quarter bundle from my buddy, ahh, it's gorgeous!

I stopped in at Amitie, where it was busy busy busy, but lots of people to chat to while we waited.

I picked up the last few months for the BOM i'm supposed to be doing.

This gorgeous Liberty pack, and bonus fat 1/8th wasn't being left behind!

The sales rack was good to me....

and a little tool to push me into some new patchwork. I hope!

My Creative Space

Some newbies this week (excuse bad photo, still only have my iPhone working!)

Beautiful fabric from the sale rack, already being cut into for a Schoolhouse tunic; my first ever BOM; and cute wooden ducks for paint and then the wall- or should I use fabric?

Head over here for more great spaces, thanks Kirsty!

blogtoberfest day 9

After such a big event yesterday that occurred in my study, the fun continued last night at Perle 8's, a wee craft group at Amitie. A dangerous combination, I tell ya!I was surrounded bu goodness- good people, good chat, good fabric.....

I finally learnt 'knot hiding' from the quilter extraordinaire

finally met up with this girl and admired Caleb's quilt

checked out the knitting girls

and enjoyed the company of many.

I have started the hand quilting on Jai's quilt, and love the results

And of course helped out my overstocked house with more goodies- a great read, my first Liberty fabrics (eek!) and Perle 8 thread- handpicked my celebrity colour picker Fi.

Tomorrow sees me again at the Yarraville market- for the next few months it will be run over 2 days! Yep, 2 days of handmade goodness. I'll be under a Deadwood quilt hand quilting haha. Come and say hi!
