Is there any gift greater, than the gift of fabric?

I've been gifted some more fabric folks! A lady who I used to belly dance with was de stashing and was kind enough to think of me!!! 


There's some upholstery weight pieces. 


Some nice silky stuff that I already have plans for ! 


Lots of floral strips about 10cm wide which will be perfect for quilting projects! 

But the best part was this! 


She sent me threads! I LOVE THREADS! What a lovely lady! It's so nice when people pass on things they don't need or won't use to others! I recently gave my sister a square of velvet so she could make herself a new coin purse! 

Seems like karma might be making its rounds! 

Much love

New textured owl!

Ive not made a textured owl in absolutely ages! But today whilst on the phone to my momma I found myself giving it a whirl! 


I can't wait to turn it into a cushion! 


I used peices of lace and a vintage lace doily! As well as other materials from my stash.... Including.... 


Cute lil brass circle bead things! 


And the wings are my from some Indian silk I had left over. 


I think it's adorable! I'm making it into a cushion tommorrow and it will be popping it into my etsy shop not long after !

Now I'm wondering if theirs any other animals that would look cool texturised! 

Much love
