    Maypole: have a lovely time.
    I have to admit, I've been on the other thread, as I'm currently making my first roman blind and it's taking a lot of attention, with the online help I'm getting. It didn't seem right to post about it here, as it's not strictly shabby chic (though it is cath kidston!). I could post if you like.
    However, if some of you haven't been there/can't get on it this morning, I posted the following link, as I was so excited to find it. But warning, if you go there, say goodbye to an hour or so! It's hugely inspirational if you love wallpaper, as there are
    1. gorgeous wallpapers
    2. you see them in different room settings, some beautifully shabby chic, but all stunning.
    There are no prices, and it's undoubtedly expensive, but it's the ideas I love. (though I am lusting after a couple of the papers...:rolleyes:
    So, you have been warned...:p

    Got a good charity shop bargain today - two Cath Kidston tea towels, brand new, 99p :)
    I don't really need any new tea towels at the moment, so I might use the fabric to make something else - I was thinking of a tea cosy but I'm still getting to grips with the sewing machine, and don't want to overstretch myself! Has anyone else made a tea cosy before?
