Fanciful felties

I've been meaning to post about this for ages!
At the end of last year I was lucky enough to be the winner of a wonderful giveaway at The Sometimes Crafter!
A short while later this arrived in the post ~



It is such a lovely book with lots of lovely ideas and uses one of my all time favourite fabrics - felt!
Thanks to Christina at The Sometimes Crafter!

Quilters meeting

Been busy this evening at my local quilters group meeting. This only takes place once a month and I am fairly new to the group but I am loving it!
It was a great meeting with a talk by Amanda Hall of Monkey Buttons. It was fantastic seeing all the amazing products straight out of the catalogue (being able to handle and touch them!) and hearing about the process of setting up the company, designing the patterns, making the products. Very inspirational!
If there is something for sale then I just have to buy (honestly I do!), so purchased this lovely pattern. Seeing the quilt in real life was stunning!


One member of the group also bought along some old magazines for members to purchase for a small donation so picked out a couple. Fab!!

Re design

I'm not sure why but I always have the tendency to tweak my blog every time I look at it!
Think I'm (almost) happy with the look - what do you all think of the new blog header!?
