A quick post to the girls in and around Dunedin - don't forget the garage sale tomorrow - downstairs in the basement at Harrowset Hall Emporium (377 Princes Street, Dunedin). This is going to be fun!! But then, bargain shopping is always fun!! Access to the basement is down the alleyway off Bond Street - the sale starts at 10.00 a.m. and goes until around 2.00 p.m.
I'll be there with baskets and baskets of fabric - all pre cut - mostly fat quarters - some halves - and all at super cheap prices. Fat quarters are priced from $1.50 to $3.50. There will be bags of trims and buttons as well - and some patterns.
And then there are the Harrowset Hall treasures - was down there today helping to set it up, and you should see bed linens and furnishing fabrics (drool worthy:), furniture and collectibles. It's like an Aladdin's Cave :)) I have my eye on several items - well, it's a sale after all, and who can resist a bargain!!!
Gotta go - lots more fabric to cut tonight:)
See you tomorrow.

A little more crochet
The blossom tree is flowering and winter is slipping away.
Been busy with the room makeovers these last couple of weeks, and am making progress. So, it's nice to sit in the evenings with my crochet - it's easy, but relaxing. I've made some wee flowers for the top of the round cushion...
... and I've been playing around with a hexagon shape - these are really fun to make and for me the bright colours are quite a change - am thinking this could be the next two year project, though, as it's probably going to end up blanket size.
Today I need to go make some curtains for the wardrobe doors - and a couple of cushions. It's not so nice outside, so the perfect day for a few hours in the sewing room.
Or .... I could make a few more hexies:))
See you later
Jenny
