Episode 25: Quilt and Craft Fair 2015 Special

Quilt and Craft Fair

Wonderfil thread

My loot incl two pieces from my friend since she knows I’ve been collecting coffee theme fabric for the last decade. The almost steampunk hot air balloons are for a wall piece for the baby. Couldn’t resist the Japanese pieces and must look at whether I now have enough for some Japanese inspired works. You can’t see great but the black on the end almost looks like stars and planets and I saw it in a beautiful quilt on display. Pretty quilt threads to make hand quilting more fun/exciting
