Evening all,

Just wanted to say a big thankyou to Danables for the gorgeous items you sent in the fabric swap. They arrived yesterday and when i get a minute i'll pop a pic and do a post on my blog. The fabrics are gorgeous and i will be making a skirt for my little girl with the fab flower fabric. I also had never thought of putting squeaks in sock monkeys what a fab idea so i'll be trying one out this week. Thanks hun it was a lovely treat when i opened it yesterday:D

Hope yours arrived safely x

Whoops I must have missed this post. SO glad you liked your swop. Yours was lovely, (and very sweetly packaged) Iv been so busy I havnt even had time to make anything, I have some catching up to do!

Hart the princess bag was so easy to make. i am going to try and do a tutorial on how to do it and put it on my blog. may take a couple of days though as i haven't done one before but i'll let you know when i have done:D

That bag is beautiful Tina, wish I had girlies to make for
Artydoll your cupcakes are sweet, good enough to eat!

Sorry about making you look at fabrics ladies, but I wanted to share the discount, I adore the retro rocket rascals too, but not sure how I would use it? If my boys were smaller I would deck their rooms in it and make them pyjamas and shirts to wear (they would have probaly hated me for it though).

I ordered a pile of stuff on Friday night and it arrived on Monday morning, it's all delightful and I used my own discount code .
Some of the bloggers were telling me off as their hubbies would complain, I think we should tell our OH's that the fabric we get is from a swap (I did that once, I am a bad girl and will say an extra hail mary to St Cath of Kidston :rotfl::rotfl:)

How about this Kandi

a little would go along way then, could easily put in on a t-shirt etc, or add a pocket to a button shirt.

How fab are they - did you see the little shoes??
I have seen bandanas and bibs done in this, perhaps I should get some of this material and make stuff hoping someone will have a baby boy in the near future ~ as long as it is not me:eek:

I love the Folk Dolls fabric my DD loves Russian dolls.

Lol same here, passed all that night I have 4. Third DD's birthday today she is 10 but her presents haven't arrived yet and had no standbys ready.

Kandipandi

Oh no, that happened to us, last week was my step son's bday on Wednesday and his present is still not here, luckily it was only a partial present but still!!! I bet she has a fab day anyway and with other presents today from family and friends yours will be more special when it comes on a different day (thats what we told our son )

The russian doll fabric is one of the ones I bought, I brought it into work with me today to show my friend and I keep getting it out of my bag for yet another look ~ I have lost the plot!
