If like me you really don't need any more fabric I advise you to look away now!
I've been debating whether to share this knowledge with you all or whether it would be better for everyone's bank balance if I kept quiet! You see the other day when I was innocently flicking round the internet I ended up here. Unfortunately the shop in question five valley designs is closing down which means that there is a sale on. A whopping 40% off everything. This includes many sewing and knitting patterns, books and fabric. So you can guess what happened next, well I just had to take a quick peek!
Well it would have been rude of me not to have helped clear the shop of stock!!
Most of the fabric in the shop is Amy Butler's. I'm a fan of her prints but I must say her "Love" range up until now has really past me by. But I do have a love of spots, so I couldn't resist buying these. There a great addition to my stash. The colours are fresh and bright, very spring like.
I also couldn't resist her Memento in Burgundy.
Oh and just in case I run out of projects on my to do list which isn't at all likely but you just never know I bought Amy Butler's barcelona skirt pattern.
So as you can see, the internet can at times be a terrible influence on oneself, how dare it show me a fabric sale!
And just in case you find looking at images of fabric slightly boring my boys thought they would make the photos more entertaining!
#1 "Mummy what are you doing", my response "taking photos of fabric",
#1 "WHY?" followed quickly by "how boring" and that was that my little bit of peace was shattered and my innocent photos turned in to the following;
I'll leave it up to you to decide if the photos do indeed
look more interesting with the help of my dear boys!
If I have been a bad influence on you, and you fancy having a look at five valleys their sale is on until the 30th June.
You are a majorly bad influence as I have now added more to my stash and spent way too much on stuff thats not really needed!!!! Pics look great with the boys too!! Justine xx
ReplyDeleteI love the fabrics but I love seeing the boys more!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHaha - you can *always* rely on kids to "help" out!!
ReplyDeleteI am using all of my self-will *not* to click on that link because I am having to save for a bed, fridge, removal van etc etc etc that comes with an imminent move, but you are sooooo tempting me...
You are a bad influence but in a really good way - just made my two purchases :-)
ReplyDeleteThose fabrics are just too pretty!
ReplyDeleteI saw a new Amy Butler knitting pattern book in Hobbycraft today, I resisted this time!
It is indeed very naughty of you to share this info, I don't think I'll be able to resist, my husband will not be pleased!
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog - so hello and thanks for the tip off!
I love that second photo of your boys! My youngest daughter does the exact same pose as your eldest son whenever I point a camera in her direction!!
