what's new...

It's that time of year when there are lots of new fabric lines entering our shops and The Village Haberdashery has some great new collections landing.

Storyboek Two, organic cottons from Birch fabric is just as whimsical and fun as the first and includes this very cute bunny and fox design. 

I am so excited about Oh Deer by Momo and can envisage plenty of Christmas related projects with the fabulous Deer in cherry.

For something a bit different go check out the sophisticated Indie from Art Gallery fabrics. I particularly love the Tapestry design which will be a fantastic blender in winter inspired projects.

To make way for all these delicious new fabrics, Annie has thrown even more fabrics into her Sale section...and boy what a sale section. There is 15% off summer hits including Crabtastic, Flea Market Fancy, Alegria, Happy Drawing and Hello Pilgrim. I have a feeling you will need to be quick to grab some of these as well as up to 20% on other lines too.



Head over to the sale section now and explore all the new lines too while you are there.
Happy shopping!

Sunshine on a rainy day

I woke up in a good mood this morning, which rapidly went downhill before I even got downstairs. The reason for the good mood was my Tuesday run with my friend Helen. Our run is sacrosanct. Nothing gets in the way of it. Apart from when I'm away in France a la last week. Otherwise NOTHING gets in the way.

So there I was, merrily getting my joggers on when I felt a strange sensation on my calf. Nano seconds later the pain became excruciating and there flew out a wasp! Well, it fell to the floor as I yanked the blighters off! It must have found a nice cosy home on the washing line and was cocooned there for a few days.

I did manage to go for my run (we had 2 weeks catching up to do) but I was pretty pathetic. It hurt ALOT.

At least when I got home there was a saving grace of receiving a little package of pretty fabrics. Even the worst of starts manage to somehow turn out ok when you receive these. Sunshine on a rainy day indeed. Hope your day did too x
