Oh looking at that picture brings up a longing to go back to Paris. I love it there. Your choices are beautiful. I look forward to your progress. In fact I love that picture, where did you get the chart?
Re: Has the Postman brought you anything Fun 2011
that is a lovely looking design. Is that what your most elegant fabric is for? I look forward to updates on this one.

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything Fun 2011
It's a The Silver Lining design. The place I originally ordered this said this was discontinued, so I got it from Ebay for only 1/4 of the original priceNewfie Princess wrote:Oh looking at that picture brings up a longing to go back to Paris.

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything Fun 2011
That fabric is super!!!!!!!!!!!
It would look amazing with a snowman on it.

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything Fun 2011
I'm still contemplating rather to use this or the Crossed Wind hand-dyed fabric suggested by the designer, both would be excellent choicercperryls wrote:that is a lovely looking design. Is that what your most elegant fabric is for? I look forward to updates on this one.

Very pretty fabrics and threads. Do you have plans for them already? Sometimes it is just nice to have the pretty stash "in case" something appropriate comes up.

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything Fun 2011
I'm thinking of using the blue fabric for one or two Christmas Angels from a Joan Elliott's chart pak I bought recently--and the other fabric, is just one I will add to my stash for later. I'm not sure what I'll do with the threads--may work up a couple of Kell's designs using a few of them--it's just so fun to play with colorsrcperryls wrote:Very pretty fabrics and threads.

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything Fun 2011
They have so much fun stuff there to look at--it really is hard to choose--I have a feeling that I will be buying fabric from them in the future, especially if they have another saleTheresay wrote:Karen those are lovely threads. and the color of that surf fabric...

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything Fun 2011
I both love and hate this thread.
Love it because of all the pretties you guys are getting.
Hate it because it makes me want to go on a shopping spree, but when I do there is nothing I want to buy.
It's like the latest designs that have been coming out lately just aren't to my taste. Too nostalgic/quaker/samplerish/niave for me

Love that Paris chart and the fabric is so pretty.
The Carrie's Creation threads are just yummy and I love those fabrics. Gorgeous colours.

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything Fun 2011
Not technically the postman but the new kits I bought from the NEC Hobbycrafts last week.I didn't realise until I got home that most of them are Christmas designs.The fabric is sparkly it doesn't really show up on the pic.
