Good morning everyone

I hope to finish the art bag today I started yesterday before my freind called for a coffee

I just have to top sew the edge and sew a button on for the fastener.

hmo just want to wish your DD a very happy birthday :bdaycake: The weather (fingers still crossed) looks good for her party on Sat

Kaz I had a good look on the site

they have some water repelent cotton chinz that would be good for out door cushions or swim bags

only got black in the clearance but thats not a bad thing :rotfl:

Hope everyone has a good sewing day, Im off to work this morning

for those looking for ripstop I came across this site - I haven't used them before so cannot recommend them, but their prices look quite good and the estimated postage box about half way down on the left at least gives an idea of the shipping cost

Hi All, Can any of you recommend a stockist for invisible zips. Ive seen a pack of 50 on ebay but at the price they are selling them at I have a feeling they might fall apart quite easily. A recommendation would be great if any of you have ordered from somewhere before. Cheers.

p.s mooloo, hope you feeling better. x
