Busy busy..

The students have been ever so busy this term. They are finally working on the the lovely Pendrell blouse by Sewholic. Have I mentioned before that I love their patterns? The instructions are very easy to follow and the finished garment is just amazing!

Anyway, we are half way through finishing this and the excitement is palpable. There was a quiet busyness about the room that was really quite gratifying. Cant wait to see them all done and dusted with this!


While investigating various fabric store options I was lucky enough to discover Maggie, who is a market staller who sells the most amazing fabric. I love that I can go two weeks later and she has all sorts of new fabric for me to discover. The problem of course is my ability not to buy everything I see and want!
Tameeko (my four year old) and I went down on Friday morning and discovered all sorts of lovely fabrics and I came back with two huge bags... now all washed and ironed and ready to be cut!
I adore the Zebra! 

Birds and flowers are always very popular


Ikat! had to bring this one home. 


I
Butterflies and flowers... bring on the weather!
So many projects and ideas in my head. I cant wait to see the to do list grow smaller. Have a good week. x
