It wasn't all gadding about and guesting over at Sara's you know.
I went back to work; 'nuff said, albeit that my day was cut short with a hospital visit; a girly with a hurting hip/leg, which is already pretty much better, but that involved waiting for 3 hours, (even having been referred by our GP!), only to be told to come back if it gets worse... we are not going back!

| Yes we have that bloody Mr Chimp again! |
I say from, as in, it really was from Denyse Schmidt she arranged it and everything, because this is her Hadley collection!! How bloody thrilled and excited am I!?
We exchanged emails a few weeks back, and now I have the full pre-release in my grabby hands...
Sadly no sunny photo opportunities today; loudest clap of thunder at 6am and then rain pretty much non-stop from then until about an hour ago, so you will have to make do with these; but believe me, I'll be getting more snaps as soon as the sun comes out; I need to capture these for prosperity...
And before you all launch in, I know there is a lot of brown, but Denyse does good brown, rich chocolate, none of that stuff that reminds you of babies or really old ladies!
So I am now thinking on what to make; the prints remind me so much of my 1970s childhood, I may have to go with that and run, and run!
OK, I think I have exhausted my supply of exclamation marks for
Here's to a fun and fabric-filled weekend folks xxx
I was just searching for you on Instagram this morning and didn't find you, but now I know for sure you are there! LOL Well I hope you little girl feels better and no more Dr. trips and I have to say that delivery from Denyse Schmidt herself is PRETTY DARN AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteHuh, I missed the IG nightmare of yesterday, but I hope the fabric fixed things a bit!
ReplyDeleteThink I'm going to have to change my name! I guess you deserve it .....and I'm laughing at the brown!
ReplyDeleteAMAZING parcel... enjoy :)
ReplyDeleteOk, that is hands down the coolest thing ever! Lucky you, cool name and cool fabric!
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with brown :-)
ReplyDeleteGlad young'un is feeling better! Lovely haul there from the big D! Kate Spain left a comment on my blog the other day!!!!!! Just sayin' Jxo
ReplyDeleteGo, run with it as far as you can!
ReplyDeleteI missed the goings on yesterday too but hope all is better! And the new Hadley is such a treat!
ReplyDeleteOMG, you did ask her, how fantastic! I am sorry about the hospital mess, but the fabrics are most excellent.
ReplyDeleteWonder if I could talk D into naming her next range "Snooks"? Maybe you could put a good word in for me! Sorry about the hospital visit- keep away from those evil places!
ReplyDeleteHoly shit!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell, that's a pretty amazing delivery!!! Sorry to hear about the hospital visit, hope all is well now
ReplyDeleteMy school uniform ( in the 60's ) was chocolate brown. Can't wait to see what you make with this!
ReplyDeleteBlimey! That's amazing. Loving those spots and hope the hurry hip/leg doesn't return :)
ReplyDeleteGlad daughter will survive (yay for an excuse to get out of riel even if it dies get replaced by waiting at A&E - a double jaw dropping yay for getting doc appt on the sane day, but enough of social niceties..) oh wow! DS has come up trumps there - lucky lucky you!
ReplyDeleteRelieved to hear the leg/hip is getting better (hope it stays that way!). Enjoy all that lovely fabric...and Mr Chimp!
ReplyDeletehey whatever happened that happy mail had to make up for it?! Now I just need to will someone like DS to name some fabric after me....Hmmmm
ReplyDeleteYou get gifts from Denyse and all I got was a like and a comment on Facebook. Lucky you. You think she'll come up with a "di" fabric collection? I doubt it. Glad said twin is doing better.
ReplyDeleteNow that is a good delivery!!!!!!!!!!!! .....sorry got carried away with the exclamation marks xo
ReplyDeleteis it bad that I hate you just a little bit? It feels bad, but then I look at that fabric and I can't help myself ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool that Denyse sent you some of the new fabrics - they do have a very 70's vibe about them. Hope your little one feels better.
ReplyDeleteWoah!! lucky lucky you
ReplyDeleteoh wow, how fab! Wonder when Kate Spain is going to bring out a range called "Wendy"?
ReplyDeleteIt's wrong isn't it, that I'm completely wondering if I should change my name just to get my mits on that fabric stack !!! Lucky you, it looks fantastic! Can't wait to see what you make!
ReplyDeleteI love your description of brown and you are so spot on!
ReplyDeleteI'm so far behind reading blogs, but I do think I remember your bad day from IG a couple of weeks back. I'm sorry, but I just can't get into the 70s decorator colours of orange and brown. I've tried but it's a trend I just can't embrace! Reminds me of my parents lounge suite we had in the 80s!
