I don't know about you, but purple is one of the coloursI have problems matching - so many shades. I pulled a whole load from my stash, and sent them off with Heva (Heather!). There were a few Carol liked, so we agreed to meet at Helen's - a log cabin in Helen's garden where she sells fabrics and holds classes.
Like me, Carol likes Spraytime, and the one I think of as snakeskin: we had a lovely time choosing these fabrics. So just to make this very clear . . .
- I got to go to a fabric shop,
- I come out with fabrics that I can cut into (however I like)
- and stitch back together (however I like)
- and I didn't have to spend any money
I didn't think the day could get any better, until Carol asked if I could make some place mats too, so we had to choose MORE fabric for me to use
I even got some sewing done: no pic as it's just a pile of fabric, but Endless Ribbon got
Glad you had a good one!
ReplyDeleteNo cooking then?
Wasn't a bad way to spend the weekend!
ReplyDeletebest way to do it xx
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of not paying but I think I would struggle if they didn't like my choices! Control freak that I am! I never knew! Haha!
ReplyDeleteNew fabric to play with and not having to spend any money, how cool is that!!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like the best type of shopping by far! And those purples are beautiful, but then I am biased as I love purples anyway.
ReplyDeleteYou seem to have had a very good Bank Holiday! LOL x
