More Fabric!

I hope everyone enjoyed Valentine's Day yesterday - I guess a lot would have spent time watching the exciting Winter Olympics!

Yes, I've been shopping again - how could I resist this glorious piece of Kokka linen/cotton that matches just perfectly with the background here, cotton/linen, also - I have plenty of that in my stash. Maybe a nice bag one day!

The Shaggy Fairy Quilt is started - oh, it should be so pretty - a lot of fun!

Fabrics for a new blankie for Byron - the littlies spent the weekend with me, and would you believe, it was all so busy we didn't even get to have a look at these - I'm not too sure about the brown - maybe a little too heavy - maybe I should have bought the blue in that design?
Happy week everyone!

    Have lots of fun with the littlies.. I too think the brown is good but you look again, sometimes I go out of the room and when I come back in I take a quick look at it?? Silly I know!! I love Fairies.

    Actually Lurline, I love the brown! I find that I gravitate quickly to blues and greens for my boys and have to make myself stop and think outside the window (so to speak!). Love the linen, adorable.

    Although I'm not a purple person that is a pretty shade and print. I think you should have bought all the colors in the Wheels line. :O)

    Kinda like the brown. It's a good anchor for the spots of brown in the other pieces. He's going to be a happy boy!
