Gathering In!

good morning!

 

i have read

that there is a time for everything under heaven.

well thank goodness for that,

'cos i have had nearly a full year of using up my fabric stash

to the point of not really being able to make much

as the fabrics there are a bit disjointed...not much of the 'this goes with that' going on.

 

i've made cushions and pillowcases,

totes and tiny totes,

stuffed hearts and even a little dog

&

even a few curtains!

 

but

eventually

a girl has to build again

&

gather in more fabric loveliness to create again...

 

 

 from top to bottom...right to left these are:

backyard baby -  ant maze, windy days & lotsa dots

sew stitchy - redwork stitched bird & glass hexagons

children at play - balloon & school gingham

nicey jane - picnic bouquet & pocketbook

gypsy caravan - turkish paisley & deco dots

i tend to buy 'from the heart'
so i can see quite a few 'little girl' & 'baby' fabrics..
maybe a couple of totes...who knows?

these are from 'the fat quarter shop' & 'hawthorne threads',
my two favourite online shops.

i'm sure i'll be needing more very soon,
more grown up designs and basics,
as i still haven't filled the gaps...
do you ever?

 

thankfully life is looking sunnier this morning;

it's amazing what a good night's sleep can do... & prayer.
 

 

we ended up having pancakes for dinner last night...

you are going to laugh, all those of you who only eat them for dessert!

 

i had to test the new queen no sugar maple flavoured syrup...

sorry 'queen'.

a little lacking in flavour.

next time i think a little of the real maple syrup..no sugar included...

would be a better option.

it was worth a try and is better than dry pancakes

so i give them that.

the pancake mix by the pancake parlour didn't let me down though!


have a marvellous saturday...
