Confession time.
I just spent £30 on fabric! A job lot of someone's aunties stash. 4 or 5 black sacks have filled my car boot!
So I better get sewing! To recoupe my money as soon as I can. Not sure exactly what I have, but know that there is so much I am bound to have plenty to work with. Can't wait till the spare bed is gone and I can make a sewing room again!When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
More stash used to make cards.
However ordered 3 books - Tilda - cost me £3.28 for them as Mr F had a gift voucher.

I'll probably add some embellishments to some of the cards later on; didn't want anything to get knocked off while they are stored. Your patience to do each one is amazing, Florenceem. Have fun with Tilda. I got a few sheets of Tilda stuff in a Hobbycraft sale at least a year ago - and I still haven't done anything with them!
I still haven't made a dent in my stash, despite tossing all the card offcuts in the bin. I SO hate to waste anything - I've had to empty bin straight outside after each session making cards so I wouldn't retrieve them! This thread has made me much more disciplined and I haven't bought too much since I joined. I've been actively looking for things to do that will use up stuff I have in the house. I've just washed an old pair of curtains with a view to making some Morsbags; just waiting for the labels to arrive.Sewing 88/COLOR]Woollies 19Card s 91Reading 37/400 -
Was getting withdrawal symptoms from a lack of crafting today (goodness knows what I'd do if I had a day job too :rotfl:), so I made this for our holiday wall (please excuse the rubbish photo but I couldnt wait to show you all) - another item added to signature - yaay
