Parcel Day




I had a bit of a spending spree last week.....eek!!!!

Sienna is a very crafty girl, she kept borrowing the "Patterns and Borders" stencil book from the library so we had a bit of a search around and found it at Five Mile Press along with another pattern stencil book.

The two Block of the months i signed up for last week arrived too, Down in the Garden and Life is beautiful. Cant wait to start these.

Finally i am a big fan of Jon + Kate Plus 8 or Kate + 8 as it is called now, so am excited to now have Kate's newest book.

BOM Addiction


I really love Block of the months :) I was already signed up for Pies and tarts and Pennsylvania Dutch and then i seen Life is Beautiful That Peg from Happy in Quilting is stitching and i fell in love.
I managed to put it off till this week but then i caved and rang up and ordered it.

Similar story i seen Down in the Garden over at Maree's Farmyard Crafts and loved it also....... so i signed up :)

But the addiction isn't complete yet there are 3 that i love at Fat quarter shop,Tiny Town which i am definitely getting, Paris in the fall and Prairie women's sewing circle which are gorgeous too.

So i have less time to sew than ever but nothing wrong with stockpiling is there ???
DH doesn't understand the concept lol.
