Some lovely things from last week (because I seem to be about a week behind real life when it comes to blogging)…

I received a coupon in my email last week for Sew, Mama, Sew & I just couldn’t resist using it :)

Beautiful new fabrics from Anna Maria Horner’s new line Garden Party… What can I say about these, other than that the colors are simply gorgeous!

Lovely orange + green from Erin McMorris’ line Park Slope. I have never really liked the color orange, but lately I seem to be drawn to it. Although I still have a hard time buying anything orange, but this fabric is the perfect shade of it…

Fabric from the Ginger Blossoms line by Sandi Henderson for finishing a quilt I have been working on… (Although I have yet to decide how big I am going to make this quilt & what to do with it when I am done, since even though the colors are beautiful I am not sure it is really going to work anywhere in my house…)

A bit of fabric for a summer top or two (although summer doesn’t feel like it is going to last much longer – oh well :)

Some very lovely shades of grey & blue linen from a shop that will remain nameless. (Unless you want a tip on where not to shop! Which honestly I have no problem giving, just shoot me a little email :)

A couple new crafting books… I don’t normally buy crafting books, but after hearing so many great things about the two on the bottom I decided I had to get them for myself. I wasn’t disappointed either, both of these books are wonderful.

The “Cotton Time” was from the local Japanese bookshop. Last Friday, Ahava and I went and did a little shopping together. Mostly it was window shopping since I had already bought enough fabric & such last week, but I did pick up the latest cotton time magazine (which I don’t think should be called a magazine, it really is more of a book.)

Ahava also gave me this lovely homemade strawberry jam! Wasn’t that so sweet of her! :)

And if you actually read all the way to the bottom of this, well that was so sweet of you! :)
