Yes it is true, I am now an Instagram Floozy.You all knew I was a fabric floozy, and was very aptly crowned so by Katie.
A floozy by definition, nicely put, is a woman of loose morals.When it comes to fabric I have absolutely none, and now it seems to be the same with IG.....I feel like I'm cheating on my blog.
But the gratification is sooo instant and I can post from exactly where I am sitting, or sewing or eating....and even in the bathroom....if I wanted to...just saying.
You'll find a new button on the right side of my blog (thankyou middle son) so you can come over and have a squiz at what I've been up to, I'm @oneweebird.
OK Fabric....holy moly there has been some fabric flying into my sewing room this week!!!
LOOK at this deliciousness!!! Anna Maria Horner,True Colours courtesy of Massdrop.
Mass drop is awesome...go on over and have a look.
I am just showing you the whole bundle cause she is way to pretty to crack open just yet.
This little bundle of pretties I only picked up today from my local Spotlight...they were having a sale and I just wanted to have a quick look, you know how it goes....$6.49 per metre!!!!!! And I only bought half metres pieces of SOME not ALL, except for the Lime Dotty Stripe.
I'm really lacking in bright lime greens ...however I could clothe an African nation in pink should they so desire
The next lot of goodies is brought to you by Hawthorne Threads, they turned up in my letterbox and I've lost all recollection of purchasing them???
Sleep buying??
Text and Scribble Notes in Charcoal seem to be my go to background fabrics these days as I can never seem to keep them for long in my stash.....trying not to hoard them.
Trendsetter by Riley Blake in Stars and Houndstooth, Ta Dot in Bubblegum, Plus Signs in Summer and Tangerine (LOOOVE ) and three prints from DS Hadley that I've bought specifically to test against some other fabric I've been saving... I think it will work, still undecided?
I couldn't resist this Riley Blake print and this sweet Little Floral in Gray
Hadley and Trendsetter also play nicely together
Right, so we come to the end of this weeks fabric gluttony. And since you've lasted the distance I'm gonna give you the heads up on a little giveaway I'm having in a couple of days.
MY ONE YEAR BLOGAVERSARY IS COMING UP...YAY!!!
I can hardly believe it's almost a year since I took this leap of faith, so I want to share some fabricky love with you all...see ya in a couple of days
Linking up with Molli, whom all Woodland Creatures should be very afraid of in case he sparkles them to death or squishes them with a designer heel!!!
I am in awe of your fabric buying capacity. Some truly lovely stuff this week though.
ReplyDeleteDamn and I thought I had the serious fabric purchasing cornered, you make me look like an ammeter - I love it! I adore IG (don't get as much time on there as I would like at the moment) - never had a bad experience with IG (touch wood). Everyone is so lovely and encouraging and so dang talented, it's easy to see why you'd be stepping out with IG over blogging. ;) :)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, so much new fabric and in your sleep too! That made me laugh! IG is great I agree, although this weekend has been hard with all the quilt market pics!
ReplyDeleteSleep buying? I don't know about the sleep part, but online is the only way to buy fabric in your PJs. So many pretties!
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy! I have the Alexander Henry owls in brown...there's a handbag in its future :) Thanks for sharing...I'm trying to figure out how to add you to my instagram feed...
