Oh happy days! Did I tell you that one of the lovely ladies who has been here this weekend is also my fabric mule? She has picked up some fabric orders I made and had shipped to her while she was in America, and brought them all to me this weekend. Happy, happy me!
So I am overflowing with fabric goodness here. To have all of it arrive on my doorstep in one fell swoop is amazing.
First up, from Jennifer at The Knotted Thread I got -
Some half yards of Simply Color ombres. I have some FQs of some of the prints and I have ideas buzzing round my brain of what to do with them. A bundle of the tone on tone chevrons - strictly for stash. Some flannel yardage of Terrain seed pods in orange for backing a quilt I will make with my three Terrain charm packs one day. The flannel is so tactile I just keep picking it up and hugging it.
From Super Buzzy, specially selected for me by Terri we have -
Fussy cut specials. You might notice that the yellow and red is the same print that I used for the giveaway day makes. I am showing you a close up of the double selvage so you can see how I used it as a fussy cut on the fabric basket I made.
From Amanda at Westwood Acres we have -
Two bundles. A FQ bundle of her Inside Voices IV - a bundle of the low volume fabrics that she puts together herself and that sell so quickly they are near impossible to get hold of. And a F8 bundle of the just released Full Moon Lagoon. Here's a closer look at both. The colours in Full Moon Lagoon make my heart flutter.
Finally, from Julie at Intrepid Thread, I picked up some different yardage that I fell in love with in a recent sale. All for my stash, except the Cuzvo for which some is backing and the other will join my other Cuzco until inspiration strikes.
That's all folks. The sun is shining, we have a ballet show to go watch. There is enough leftover food that dinner tonight shall be an easy affair for me. And I have yards and yards of fabric to roll around in. (I just might need more storage though.) Life is good!

Oh my gosh - you lucky thing! Jealous doesn't even begin to cover it! If only we could all have a fabric mule... How was the soup? :D
ReplyDeleteI didn't know Terrain was even made in flannels! I made a Terrain quilt and would have loved some flannel backing. Your colours of the new fabrics are gorgeous! Happy petting.
ReplyDeleteNow that is a fabric haul!
ReplyDeleteneed to check the flannel more. looks great and great colors
ReplyDeleteWoah! You have such great taste that I bleedin' love it all!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood work, you will be sewing for a long while with all that.
ReplyDeleteI love your new stash. You lucky lucky girl. I have just got The new moon lagoon fabric in the shop. Each time I sell some i think "Oh please leave some for me" I may just have to treat my self. Enjoy the ballet too.
ReplyDeleteWow! You hit the jackpot. Seriously though, the shipping on all those was probaly the cost of a ticket. Postage from the US has gone crazy.
ReplyDeletesuch beautiful fabrics. Can't wait to see what lovely designs from from those.
Excellent choices ma'am ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I would be brave enough to call her a *mule*! ;0) but you definitely lucked out with that great fabric haul.
ReplyDeleteI love the crossword fabric - can you please definitely not tell me what it's called so that I can definitely not order some immediately ;0)
xxxx
Oh wow, look at all that gorgeous fabric!
ReplyDeleteHoly crap, did you have to pay for her extra baggage allowance?
ReplyDeleteOh so lovely Susan....the orange fabric with the teardrop shapes looks just like the texas teardrop quilt I just made.
ReplyDeleteAwesome fabric goodies! I also was lucky enough to score an Inside Voices IV. So excited for it to arrive!
ReplyDeleteOMG that is probably more fabric that I have in my stash in one hit! lol I'm loving that F8 Bundle. Gorgeous colours and patterns.
ReplyDeleteOh my! So much amazing fabric!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome haul!
ReplyDeleteSo did I tell you about the bundle I snuck out the back door? ;o)
ReplyDeleteWow...I need a mule too!
ReplyDeleteMore storage indeed. You might need to up the household insurance policy too! Lots of loveliness, lucky girl!
ReplyDeleteFor me? How kind!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness what amazing fabrics. It sounds like you have had simply the best weekend ever. And long may the happiness continue!
ReplyDeleteYou already know I love this, I had to resist every urge to roll around naked in it yesterday, now that would have freaked everyone out!!
ReplyDeleteGot me some of that last one in BP after seeing yours! You're such a bad influence on me! Jxo
ReplyDeleteOh WOW, I need a mule to come to me! You should link up to Sunday Stash over at Finding Fifth.
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful fabrics - love the ombres!
ReplyDeleteSo much fabric goodness! You must be delighting in looking at them and dreaming of endless possibilities....
ReplyDeleteOh.my.God
ReplyDeleteThat fabric mule came good
ReplyDelete, enjoy the fabric wallow. Di x
Far out! Where the hell are you going to put all that . That fabric pile could be seen from space without the aid of the hubble telescope!
ReplyDeleteIt's all beautiful. Makes me want to run on over and roll round in it too!
Great site and love your fabric choices great mate for muling for you.
ReplyDeletewow wow wow! I refuse to be jealous and am sending happy thoughts your way :-)

ReplyDeletewhat a wondeful day! That is loads of fabric yumminess! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot of new lovelies there to work with.
ReplyDeleteSomebody is green with envy! ME!!!!!.
ReplyDeleteWow! I'm not sure I'd cope with so much gorgeous fabric turning up all at the same time! I need more fabric storage too. I'm trying to tell myself that it's really too much fabric rather than a lack of storage, but it doesn't seem to be working yet!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to get all that beautiful new fabric - almost like Christmas!
ReplyDeleteOh, your fabric mule! That is so funny!!!
ReplyDeleteBloody hell - only jealous I didn't think to ask!
ReplyDeleteYou got yourself a great haul there! You could try to get some storage to go with your table (how's progress with that?). Though I'm sure you won't need the extra storage for too long, you're probably full of plans of how to use it all :-)
