So today I have been sorting out fabric scraps, ribbons and buttons, ready to take. It's hard to know what to take and what to leave behind!
They started out like this
but after ironing them I got to sorting them into piles and then they ended up like this
So here is my basket, all packed and ready to go
I shall be back to let you know what I made!
p.s If you can, come to the Cowslip Workshops tomorrow as Jo is having a charity sale and tea party. I will have a stall there. Lizzie and Linda will also be there with their wonderful French textiles.
I have stash envy, your neat and folder fabrics look gorgeous.

Have a great day.

ReplyDeleteYou will love Julie - and the workshop! I had the pleasure of meeting her and her husband when she attended the opening of an exhibition hosted by a friend of mine here in Denmark, and she is one of the loveliest and most charismatic people I know! She actually bought a vintage dress of me, so say hello from Kirsten in Denmark who sold her the "Frau Dress" ;-) !
