Sunday Stash #1

I actually haven't bought that much fabric this week due to the car situation (sob!) but, as this is my first Sunday Stash post, I think I can be excused for talking about older items in my stash?

First up is my Josephine by French General FQ bundle.

I'm terrible about seeing fabrics, loving them but not buying them when they're first released. Then when I finally do decide I want them, they're sold out. There must be a term for that (other than "ineptitude"!).

I fist bought a half yard length of one of the fabrics from the range from Heath's Country Store but stupidly didn't buy the whole range. Plush Addicts to the rescue! Now I have a lovely bundle ready to go.

Whilst I was in Missouri I also picked up a layer cake of Mustang by Melody Miller. I love the arrow shafts and bumblebees!

Finally for this week I have a blue and cream Fairy Frost jelly roll by Michael Miller. I think this is my first stash item with metallic elements and I'm going to be interest to see how it translates into a lone star quilt.

Happy Sunday!

I admit it - I'm a fabric whore

I'm not sure whether that's a politically correct term (probably not!) but I confess to being fairly free and generous with my favours when it comes to fabric.

I went to Missouri Star Quilt Co in November last year and had to buy an extra suitcase to bring all my fabric home. Sorry/not sorry.

I love anything Blend Fabrics have done including the fab Treelicious which I'm making into a Jack's Chain at the moment.

Anything by Kate Spain is ok by me but my favourite is Cuzco. I'm holding some charm packs and a scrap bag for the perfect project. Just look at those teals and violets!

Ditto anything by Alison Glass, whose collections are difficult to get in the UK, at least as a whole bundle. I'm desperate to get hold of a complete FQ bundle of Sunprints but may end up having to order it from the US again. 

Just in case you think I only like bright primary colours, lots of French General and Minick and Simpson also seem to have fallen into my stash...

I'm definitely a fan of simpler palates and don't really like 30s or retro prints. Equally I think Liberty's prints are great but not really my cup of Earl Gray. But I'm always ready to be converted to s new designer or manufacturer - a girls gotta be flexible in this game after all...
