A little fabric shopping took place last week and boy am I pleased with all of it. Saints and Pinners continue to have the best collection of on-line fabrics based in the UK and I was able to get my full wish-list in the same place.
First up is this little array of pinky reds, perfect for quilting...from the left...
the stunning Coral Reed by Cloud 9
a restock of Tanya Whelan's fab Dolce Fans
Amy Butler's spots from the gorgeous new LOVE line
This next little grouping are just sublime. A while ago I bought my first stash from Anna Marie Horner's beautiful range and I was addicted on the spot. Not only do the fabrics have the most exquisite feel to them and are a dream to sew, but the colours and designs are quite simply divine.
The blue and red Diamond Mine are stunning, but I think the Little Honey in Meadow wins my heart.
Another group that have been on my wish-list for some time are these from Cloud 9 Fabrics and it was high time I treated myself to a selection. As mentioned previously they are not only delectable in every way, but their organic eco properties make them a double whammy.
Whilst I was shopping I picked up this little stash of everyday essentials...a couple of Free Spirit fabrics and another Amy Butler Sunspots sandwiched between.
Oh and let me share with you a little extra I treated myself to this week...a gorgeous hand screen-printed piece by Melbomba. Mel has printed her fab design on a beautiful linen/cotton mix. Go check out her store. She has some fab pieces. I've got my eye on this one next.
I can sleep easy knowing my stash is looking this good, but the good news is I'm making room by having a bit of a clear out of some great fabrics but no longer work for me....some scrap bags and bigger yardarge...so watch out for the alerts...

You have chosen some great fabrics there Karen :)
Wow Karen! Thanks for such a glowing recommendation.
Thanks for the lucious eye candy! Love that last pink/red one.
I do love the Cloud 9 Fabrics and Saints and Pinners do have a great range. My favourite Cloud fabric is Flock (white with blue birds) got some winging it's way to me!
The cloud9 ones do look lovely. I've resisted thus far, not sure if I can continue!
Lovely choices! Just to warn you- the sandpiper from Cloud 9 dyed my daughter's underwear a delightful shade of primrose in the pre-wash. So DO pre-wash!
