The arrival of the ‘Butterfly Fling’ fabric the other day meant that I had to do some re-arranging to squeeze it into the shop. So I spent Friday morning shifting a few different bits’n’pieces around and I managed to end up with an empty basket! "Well that will be very handy for the 10 new bolts of Deb Strain’s ‘Bistro’ range that are due in October" I thought………then half an hour later the delivery van pulled in and voilà…….in he came with a box of ‘Bistro’ fabric!
(The bolt in the middle if black with swirls - like the beige beside it).
I have also been very naughty…..even though I have been making good progress on my ‘works in progress’....I just couldn't resist and I have made a new quilt using the ‘Butterfly Fling’ fabric.
I drafted up this pattern about two years ago, but my first attempt at making it didn’t turn out as I had hoped. A change of tact – I have used 9 fat quarters instead of 7 different fabrics. I have also started a new version of my ‘Lollipop’ cushion using the same range, but have only managed to make 25 suffolk puffs so far. I won’t be able to do any sewing tonight as it’s tax time again – the dreaded BAS…..it's not difficult but it has to be done to catch tomorrow’s mail.

I recently worked in a local Q shop, we are always excited when the Brown truck pulled up front, Love the new fabrics.
