These came from Del Ray Fabrics, and Pamela even popped in a few extras including almost half a yard of the Riley Blake iron and pan print! Look Reene, I have aprons!
So I am now raring to get on with some making tomorrow, (before the dentist)... Just a teensy peek partner, I can't resist taunting you!
So hopefully I will be able to get both Swap parcels in the post by the weekend, phew, I don't like cutting it fine.
As promised, a piccie of my Across the Sea backside - it's a big one, and I'm afraid the wind (!), rain and then sunshine all conspired for a rather uninspired photocall...
I have just enough batting, so as soon as the weather allows, I'll be outside with my can in hand, doing basting angels! Happy days.
Tease indeed! But I'll forgive you when I open it up! Hehe! Great quilt despite horrid weather! I still have to do backside of mine...
ReplyDeleteGreat fabrics! Glad to see your backside looking so fine!
ReplyDeleteOooh, love the parcel contents. I've got one mug rug to finish for the swap, and I hope to get the lot in the post this weekend, along with some bee blocks - whew! I did manage to sit down at lunchtime at work and work out my ATS QAL back for my mad fabric/quilt top width, so I should be able to get to it Sunday.
ReplyDeleteJust to make you jealous though, I have 4 parcels to pick up at the sorting office tomorrow... :oD
QAL backside looking fab...I`m 4 crosses down and the 2 bordered biggies to go. Glad that you don`t like waiting too and happy your yummy fabrics have turned up!
ReplyDeleteCute backside (eek, that sounds so wrong!) I am especially liking the three cross block on the back :)
ReplyDeleteWas your fabric ripped or cut? I'll feel really badly done by if only mine was ripped. Love what you got though!
ReplyDeleteBasting spray sounds good to me- but what are basting angels? Your new fabrics are wonderful! Lucky you!
ReplyDeletehow do you baste outside? i basted on my kitchen floor last night and it is sticky now... ran out of 505 and had to resort to the crappy super sticky stuff. not my fave.
ReplyDeleteAren't parcels the best! Me and my kids get so excited whenever we get one :) Even if it's something boring! Maybe we need to get out more... anyway that backside is looking great!
ReplyDeleteFabric mail is the best. I was the recipient of "royal mail" the other day. so excited. And that iron fabric is awesome!
ReplyDeleteLovely fabrics. Is that green crosshatch one from the same range as Victoria's "floor mat"? (so glad we put a stop to that idea). Lovely fabric!
ReplyDeleteGlad parcels arrived, I hate waiting too!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! Mine came weeks ago... But I didn't get free stuff! Who did you have to kill to make that happen? :-P
ReplyDeleteLucky missus! Still waiting for mine... Looks like you got some gorgeous stuff though! And wow, isnt your backside attractive?!
ReplyDeleteI spy with my beady eye some Prince Charming!! Love the fabrics, you lucky thing!
ReplyDeleteHaha basting angels, do we get a pic?!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the aprons and blake'y irons and pans - cutesome :)
Oh I love green and red! Your backside is looking the best I've ever seen it! Jxo
ReplyDeleteLooks great Hadley! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the red stripe - think you should send it here ;o) Love the contents of your parcel - do you make yourself wait to open them until you've opened and sorted all the boring stuff? What am I asking?! I bet you jump right in before you've got the door closed!
ReplyDeleteYou tease! What beautiful fabrics! Will you post photos on the flickr site after its recieved? We're all dying to have a peek!
ReplyDeleteYour bum jokes are still crackin' me up! I see nothing's changed and inside I'm still a six year old. You too apparently :)
