The 'in's and 'out's

I know it always looks like I just get wonderful parcels 'IN' the mail, but I do send some 'OUT' too! I wish my Booty Swap Quilt would arrive so that I can show that (Sorry swap partner, you have been so patient!).

In the meantime, I made an African bag for a special friend...

Here's the front



And the back



I did receive some GORGEOUS!!! rose fabrics from Siobahn and Jodie. Thank you both for such lovely fabrics! When they arrived my camera was kaput and now that I have a new camera I realise that they have been absorbed into the dark little pit I call my sewing room which is next to a half finished family bathroom!! And above a half started utility room!

Actually all roses get absorbed into the 'big hexagon rose project' (perhaps an update on that soon..) which is not nearly as fantastic as Jodie's 'Big Selvedge Project:'



I borrowed this picture with Jodie's permission from her blog because this dress made out of fabric selvedges is just so awesome (and I can see at least one of my selvedges in there LOL - see I do send some stuff OUT!)
