Nothing exotic about the packaging but it is very appealing!! Another buy from the US while the exchange rate is so go. If I was to buy this fabric here, it would cost four times as much, even taking the postage into account. So I am stocking up while I can. This stuff was $5US a metre, as compared to $26AU a metre. Most of them are half metre minimum cuts. So if I cut them into fat quarters, keep one for myself and sell the rest, I could actually end up making money on the deal. But more likely I will just swap them with people.
These are some of the birdies for my quilt. I have stay stitched around the paper template. Next, they need to be starched, ironed and then sewn to the quilt top.
I worked on these last night. These are the four large corner flowers for my quilt. I have stay stitched around the paper template. Next, they need to be starched, ironed and then sewn to the quilt top.
A few blocks from the Old Fashioned Charm quilt I am making. I don't normally use quilt kits but I really liked the pattern on this one. The blocks are about 4" square, cotton using 1930's repro fabrics. The are hand stitched, constructed the old fashioned way with templates.
