This was my favourite quilt - I have always loved Princess Feathers! This pic I haven't edited, so you are not seeing it at it's best - just gorgeous!.jpg)
Hhmmm - this is my shopping bag - very, very heavy! We flew budget and were restricted in weight, so I carried this on as hand luggage! It is chockablock full of fabrics! The bag - $7 at Victoria Street Markets - the zipper was very strained so it may not see many more shopping trips!.jpg)
Just a few fabrics to show today - these are gorgeous little whimsies that I so love! I have lots more to show you in time to come as we made a special trip to GJ's Discount Fabrics on Friday - a quilters' heaven with a 25% discount sale!♥
What a wonderful trip with gorgeous travelling companions - and yes, we did burn the candle at
