ribbon new-ness

 I've added 3 new colours to our pencil stripe selection (grey, pale pink & black)

 and burgundy, bright blue & purple to our ginghams

 narrow satin stitch is a new design - available in 4 colours - it's just 3mm wide so it's great for using as hanging loops

 and I went mad on satin micro dots and got them in a whole rainbow of colours!

 which means my ribbon shelf is looking pretty full right now ;-)

all new ribbons are on the website here

I made a lampshade!

 We've got new kits - and I made one of them today :-)

Lampshade kits come in 3 sizes -  everything you need is in the box - apart from the actual Lampshade Material, you get to choose whatever fabric/material you wish (fabric, felt, wallpaper)  I used some of our new Hello Bear fabric and I love it :-)

if you would like to make your own lampshade too you can find the kits on the website here

hello bear

our newest fabric delivery is a rather more grown up range of cute fabrics....

 ...it's called Hello Bear, and is by a fabric company called Art Gallery.

 The lead fabric has bears, foxes, deers, owls & racoons and it comes on grey or aqua...

 ...the complimentary fabrics include stag heads

 ...leaves...

 ...mushrooms...

 ...and geometrics

 It really is a very gorgeous collection.  I hope you all like it too?

 Oh, and look!  I have found the perfect place to keep it ;-)

 Hello Bear fabrics can be found on the website here

I made that!

After all the orders were finished today I had an hour or so to do 'other things'
Should I do some accounts?
no
Should I photograph and list some new stock?
no
Should I tidy up?
no
Should I make something?
YES!!

 Inspired by the new fur fabric I made a cloud cushion!  It's double sided - the fluffy side is Cuddle Soft fur fabric...

 ...and the other side is Flannel fabric.

It's so squishy and cuddly - and most of all making it was FUN!

new fake fur

 it's just got a lot fluffier around here!
It's hard to show just how soft these are in photographs...

 ...but if you were here you would have cuddled these little bundles of loveliness too!

all *new* 100% polyester fur is on the website HERE

The first of the New Products is on the website!

I have a new fabric supplier - and the first of the new designs I ordered from them is this FAB Easter Egg design - aren't the colours gorgeous?

These fabrics are wider than my other fabrics - the normal quilters cotton width is 45" and these are 54".....

There will be more from this fabric company very soon indeed :-)

March Madness

 Lots of you have already snapped up some of our fabric bargains.....this is one lovely order (well, the fabric part of the order) that went out today: 

 My Ta Dot shade card came in very handy at the cutting table today - the colours have all got crazy names and I can't ever remember them, but the card helps loads!

 All our cotton fabrics are currently reduced from £3.25 to £2 a fat quarter (£6.50 to £4 a half metre) click HERE to see them on the website

New Stock
I've ordered a lot of new stock (it was the pesky Trade Fair that made me do it!)  and I know it frustrates a lot of you when I add new things when you have just ordered - but I can't help it right now...during March there will be a LOT of new stock added....but....
