some yummy fabric to get you going for christmas......

There are days when I just love getting surprises. And yesterday was one of those days.  Back in February I ordered some of the Esprit De Noel range from French General by Moda. I was greeted when I got home yesterday to 2 lovely boxes full of these fabrics. Here are just 3 of them to get you ooo'ing and aaaaahhhh'ing....





All of them are up on our website..... I have already started to make up kits to go with our lovely Gail's new Christmas book.....



send me a message if you would like more information on the types of kits was are making up, they range from the FULL KIT AND CABOODLE (as in the book and everything you need to make EVERY PROJECT! - except wadding) down to the book and kit to make the wall quilt only..... it's up to you as to how much or how little you want ....

SO CALL US NOW....I bet you can guess what I will be making ready for our quilt retreat with Gail in July "yippee"

Be blessed in all you do my friends, and remember there is never a better way to be inspired then to inspire....

love to all,

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas..........

Did you know there there is only 230 days till Christmas AND there are only 58 days till our CHRISTMAS IN JULY..... I am trying really hard not to be too unprofessional, but seriously I am sitting here in my little chair doing a jiggy dance with excitement.

The elves, when they are being helpful, and I have been busy getting ready.


This week we will be finalising our destination for our Christmas in July with Gail Pan from Gail Pan Designs.

We are also in the process of making up so glorious gift bags with lots and lots of goodies.
We have booked some delicious treats from Lana the Cake Lady.
The yummy lunch is just about set and oh DO NOT get me started on the sweet treats throughout the day.
I'm thinking maybe some gingerbread cake, some sugar cookies......oh I have to stop as I'm drooling.


I don't know about you but I JUST LOVE giving things to people.  Whether it be for a birthday present, a baby shower or just for the sake of giving, whatever, the thing is I JUST LOVE IT.

So I am having an absolute ball looking around, grabbing things here and there as I find them and all for fact that on the 6th July 2013 at our Christmas in July, every single person attending our day will be spoilt.

I'm thinking, sweet buttons, lovely ribbon, handmade cards, maybe some patterns ( *wink wink*) oh I don't know what else, how about some fabric, some notions, I know what about GIFT VOUCHERS?.....oh me oh my I could just go on and on.....

One thing I know for sure is, this will be a day to remember.

I hope you have your spot reserved....this is only our first year running one of these events and it will not be the last......

have a blessed week, be kind to a stranger and most of all spread some of that Christmas Spirit, it is never too early or late.

Love to you all and your families,

Mrs C xxxx
