Yes! Unless you count the tube I made last night when I was having a play, told DH it was a ahem, "winky warmer" but he didn't see the funny side lol!

Hi Kandi, it's lovely isn't it?
It's from my local market and was £3.50 per metre, oh they have some gorgeous stuff. I was tempted to get some for me to make a dress.
If you want a few scraps for patches and things I can post you some leftovers?

Sorry DB, I forgot to congratulate the result. Just think what your next grade will be when you're healthy.

Thanks Vicki really kind of you.
Our local market is rubbish, I'm so jealous. I popped to a local craft shop today in my lunchtime for a couple of zips and came away £30 down! Bought some nice fat quarters and off cuts will have to put a pic on my blog tomorrow - eekk I have spent lots this week on myself feel quite gulity

Oh I find that I get more excited in sewing shops than I do in clothes shops sometimes lol
I am making a proper list this time as I hve a couple if dresses which need zips replacing, and I am refraining from buying any more fabric til I have made the dresses I have planned with the things I've got!

I'm really enjoying the machine. It's so much quicker than hand sewing! I am going to fly through the jobs I have lined up I hope! Kandi, if you PM me your address I will post you some bits. They really will be small bits though as I'm being reimbursed for the fabric so I am getting every bit I can out of it but I'm sure they'll be OK about the scraps going to good use!

I've got that green spotty fabric as a tablecloth - I love it, so pretty!
