Not just any old FMF, proper old FMF, you know, the fabric from before I was born; well, before I got embroiled in this mad crazy obsession...
I had obviously heard tales of this line's magical powers, and had gone bonkers over the reprint, pre-ordering the lot, but had been
I knew the originals were meant to be more delicate, and they really are. The red print at the back is a legacy cut, but the one in front is an original, the picture is shocking, so I don't know why I bothered to point it out, but in real life they look very different to my trained fabrician's eyes!

Oh lucky you. What'cha going to make?
ReplyDeleteI believe you even if I cannot really see it in the photo.
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling that man is !
ReplyDeletelove the vines in the front. Drooooool
ReplyDeleteOooh, lovely! Looking forward to see what you make with them (when you manage to cut into them some time in 2032).
ReplyDeleteAll gobbledygook to me but lovely fabric! And a lovely man!
ReplyDeleteI always fancied some FMF too - but got sidetracked by batiks instead! Love this bundle that you have, though.
ReplyDeleteI'd guess that you've no plans for these except looking and stroking them!
ReplyDeleteThe original looks a truer red. Lucky you. I saw Aneela's destash a little too late.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favourite ranges. You are a very lucky lady.
ReplyDeleteYou realise you could be burgled for your fabric stash!
ReplyDeleteOh you certainly need treats after a trip to Aberdeen, just ask Sarah ;o)
ReplyDeleteHave fun; if you can bring yourself to cut into it, that is!
ReplyDeleteThey went to the perfect new home. No one would cherish them like you :)
