The other day we made an impromptu visit to the fabric warehouse...not just any fabric warehouse but the one that houses Kaffe and the rest of our favourite contemporary designers. We filled the trolley then we filled the boot of the car...
As we drove back to the shop I had a queazy weird feeling as though I had been to a party and had too much to drink...or a fine restaurant and had too much to eat...or a day at the beach with too much sun...It was a woozy kinda fun feeling. The result was a lot of excited giggles and then we started unloading...
I sometimes forget that my indulgence affects others! This was only a small part of the load and it was on top of what had arrived while we were out..
Sweetness as well as ultra cool style from Japan.
It is almost too much excitement to take in on one afternoon. We had to stay and absorb it all until well into the evening! I got home feeling spent...completely exhausted from the excitement of it all.Funny how life changes what gives us a thrill.
Not all the fabrics are wildly colourful. I know it isn't expected but we do have some lovely subtle fabrics as well. These are a few of my favourites...you know, the ones I sort of set behind something so no one buys them until I get a chance to use them! Oh, you didn't know I did that?
I also have a soft spot for anything folk art style and this is one I have my heart set on in any of the colours it comes in.
I love the simplicity of the design and how it captures my imagination and starts a story in my mind. At first glance it would look great in Dinozag...an old favourite pattern of mine that could pick up on that zig zag of their arms! It might take some playing around to figure out just how to adjust this pattern but I have an urge...
This organic cotton range is another softer palette that we are loving. That coral is a colour that has really grown on my this year and particularly when set with the softest of grey.
The downside of imagination overload is overloads of bolts of fabric so I am having a sale until the end of October. Yep. Discounts of 10-50% of selected items in the shop. We have a HUGE sale bay of $12 fabrics, a large refreshed collection of Wacky Backs (5 metres for $55!!!) and other specials in the shop. If you are enrolled in one of our classes or BOM programs be sure to ask about a special treat as a sign of our appreciation!
For those of you that can't make it in...can I interest you in a Bargain Bundle? We'll put together 25cm (10") strips of hot fabric 5 for $22. You pick...contemporary, pretty or classic and we'll surprise you with our favourites! Pop us an email of what you might like and we'll work it out the bundles.
I best be off now and brace myself for the day. It's already been a busy week as everyone gets into the Spring Fling Sale fever...must be the gorgeous weather. More to come for those that wait! k


Ohh lovely fabrics!!! I love that folksy one!! You're so right that it is reminiscent of your Dinozag quilt.
