Midge, who is Emma? Did you not order it from Silkweaver themselves?

No I didn't. If you want Emma's details, I can send them by pm.

Midge, those fabrics are wonderful and so reasonable too. Would you pm me Emma´s details too please as I am really getting into different fabrics.

That Iris garden looks interesting too....I love these hand dyed fabbies

Well, I got my book today that I bought off play.com on Sunday, so Im well chufft..2nd book off Diane Gabaldon, Dragonfly in Amber..off to bed now to read it, night all xx

My lovely post woman brought me three packages today.

One contained the threads, frame and flowere fairies book form Mel...Thank you very much they are great.

Second and third were cones of aran lambs wool from Scotland (bought on e-bay), they are scrumpy to say the least. I was really surprised that postie delivered these because if things will not go into a letter box she does not normally bring them.

I am a happy bunny.

I also recieved the blue fabric that was so graciously sent to me by Midge. She is a sweet heart and it is a really BIG piece it is going to be so nice to work with.



The picture is a tad on the light side as in person it is more blue then this shows.

Does a case of wine count?

I am so glad you like them Rose! I was worried the cow would look odd. I am also glad it stood up to being mailed. I was worried the thing wouldn't hold and so the cow wouldn't stand up like it should LOL

Enjoy it!

My, ladies, what lovely goodies you have all received -- and the wine can be shared round at the Stash & Grab while we inspect all this new stash!

I rec a 20"x30" Magic Guide Aida in 18ct for £5.63 and a Laguna fat quarter 25ct for £5.74. I bought them fom http://www.bluegrooveracing.co.uk/cross ... s-c45.html" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank .... They also have a shop on ebay and the quality of the stuff is great, DMC is only 31p and they have just started stocking HAED patterns The website is slightly cheaper than on ebay

Ive bought both to see if I can see to stitch on the 25ct

Happy stitching
