little doggies

cute puppies 


I always get the sew hip magazine .. I know that I should start advertising in it .. but never seem to have enough time .. and the shop seems to be ticking over nicely at the moment (thank God) .. but I did spot these little dogs that I just had to have a go at .. not completely finished ... but nearly there.. have a peek and tell me what you think... I hope to do  craft fair this year .. hopefully fingers crossed - so I am trying to build up a stash to take with me ..so I had better keep cracking 





new patterns .. yee haaa


We have had a lovely delivery of Patterns arrive on Friday ... people have being asking if we were going to get patterns in .. so I have stuck with a few basics for starters .. just to see how they will go .. these Tina Givens ones ... really caught my eye- I love her fabrics .. they are ecclectic and somewhat theatrical .... available with us

Alexander Henry fabrics never fail to impress me .. reasonably priced .. good quality .. fun and colorful .. and always .. different in style - here are just some of the newbies that we have received. 

New Heather Bailey Classy florals

I have being so useless lately with my blogging .. my computer has being more  on the blink than working and I seem to be constantly chasing my tail .. then I noticed that I had a couple of followers now .. so I figured that I had better make an effort and post some fabric delights 
we have had a lovely selection of new Heather Bailey floral fabric arrive the colors in them are beautiful - sharp blues and greens and soft greys

In memory I used an old shirt belong to my dad as the back of this one .. so little Sorcha .. will have a good old chew on that ...
