I sold more than I spent; actually I sold the 2 cuts of fabric, and as the evening drew to a close, I bought some scraps from Jessie aka lovely fabric pedlar Sew and Quilt. I missed out on one lot that I really wanted, and I didn't even enter into the mad crazy Heather Ross frenzies!
It was probably a mistake to load up my pictures so early as with almost 1000 pics in the group, the first ones were miles down the list within minutes, I know I didn't have time to look back, just in case!

| Valori Wells - Wrenly & Anna Maria Horner pink voile. |

| Anna Maria Horner - Field Study & grey voile. |
There are many online tutorials to make these scarves, I use the Anna Maria original, with an open loop, but if you google infinity scarf tutorial there are loads, and honestly they are so quick to make, (says she, with one set still waiting on her FAL list, ahem!).
So it's back to the secret stuff for me, although I did quickly make a few more #economyblockalong blocks this afternoon, picture proof tomorrow, promise xxx
May I have the bottom one - AMH and the grey one ??
ReplyDeleteIn fact - can I take both??
ReplyDeleteComing out of the destash with more money than you went in with must be quite a skill!
ReplyDeleteI would love the first one if still available please. jennylarking at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteIt was so much fun. I only joined Instagram a week or so ago and I had no idea that it would bring me so much lovely fabric. I fear it will be beans on toast for the rest of the month!
ReplyDeletePS My husband is watching Flash Gordon and I just had a revelation about your blog name.
Balls, missed out on the scarves! It was mental last night, I was trying to do bath time for my little one, and fabric buying with the other hand, by 8 I had to come offline, it was making me feel stressed, and that naughty Mrs S beat me to a few good ones, I cursed her, a lot!!
ReplyDeleteWell done! I sold more than I bought too but that was easy because I'm fasting! Good fun though and a great exercise on stash sorting!
ReplyDeleteYou did well. I followed it all on IG but only the people I follow anyway. I wasn't buying just living vicariously!
ReplyDeleteGo you selling the last of your bits. More money to spend on fabric!!!
ReplyDeleteIt was madness but fun! Roll on next year :)
ReplyDeleteWell done you! I sold, but didn't buy. Didn't get rid of the Liberty though, bugger! Maybe I'll retry when I'm home from gallivanting around the country next week!
ReplyDeleteI haven't succumbed to the joys of IG yet and I'm on a fabric diet, so maybe next year.
ReplyDeleteWell done on the destash ( I also caught Flash Gordon advertising your blog on TV!!!!)
ReplyDeleteIt looked such fun, wish I hadn't been too knackered from clients all of Sunday to participate! Mind you, after making all that effort to pare down my stash a couple of months ago I probably don't need to start rebuilding it quite yet.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Hadley! It's nice to know they have a good home, isn't it?
