Irises

I have been in reciept of a blogland random act of kindness (RAK). Although I entered for a couple of the giveaways in the Great International Stash Busting Giveaway I didn't actually win any, but I recieved an email from Sherry saying that she had more of the Irises that she had included in her giveaway and was I interested... as I had said in my comment that I am collecting iris fabrics to make a quilt for my daughter (who's middle name is Iris).

So here they are, t hree big stacks of charm squares,they are just fab, and the colours are so much better in real life than in the pictures. I can't wait to get working with them.

Thank you so much Sherry.

Habedashery Swap

I took part in the EB Habedashery Swap and opening day was Saturday.

Here are the pictures of the goodies that I recieved from Becca.

I had put in my preferences that I needed buttons and I was hoping to make some more softies so she sent me lots of appropriate goodies for that.

And have a look at these - geniune vintage women's weekly - how cool are they. I am going to make the kangaroo first.
