    hello! I have the tilda book and the warm fuzzies book and I wondered if anyone could point me in the direction of reasonably priced online fabric shops? Been to my local ones and it was too overwhelming and embarrassing for me so I have decided to order online, there seems to be a huge number of places but I hoped you could recommend some.

    I know what you mean about it being overwhelming! I tend to order mine off ebay in fat quarters, which is usually enough for craft projects. I will see if I can find the seller and post the link for you:D

    here you go http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/NEW-THREADS-QUILT-SHOP__W0QQ_armrsZ1
    and another one http://www.seamstar.co.uk/index.php I haven't ordered from this one but the fabric looks gorgeous and there are a few Amy Butler patterns for free :0)

  • zombicazz - I love your bag:T The floral fabric and denim go really well together and the little pocket is fab:D Isn't it a great feeling knowing that you recycled your old stuff to make something useful.

    I spent the weekend sewing with my DD. She had to make a bag for school as they didn't have enough time or working machines to do it during lessons:eek:. She done a really good job how ever she did make it complicated as she is aiming for an A*. I will post pics when she brings it back as I forgot to take them last night.

    Anyway I forgot how much I enjoyed taking time out for sewing:D

    Note to self - Must do more:T:T:T
