Getting Ready for Fabric a Brac

Fabric a Brac is back this Saturday in Palmerston North.

Fingers crossed that the weather holds off - please no more snow - we just aren't used to it!

If you live in the Manawatu it would be lovely to see you and please say hi as it is nice to put faces to names!

Plus thank you for all the good advice that having two quilts on the go is OK.  I knew I could rely on you to give good advice.

The quilt top is finished, but I am waiting for some decent light to take a photo and then I will share.

I will finish this post with a photo of snow coming down at our place.  Apparently this was a once in 50 years storm.

It didn't settle enough for a snowman ☃ but there was enough for a snow ball fight❄☺❄

Fabric-a-Brac - fabric junkie heaven

Fabric-junkie heaven is back!!  Pick up fabulous vintage, unusual and modern fabric at fantastic prices at this free fabric fair.
Here is just one of the fabrics as a teaser...

And there are always yummy buttons and trims...

This Saturday at St Anne's Hall, Emmet St in Newtown, 9.15 am to 12.30 pm.

Proceeds from the fair support the Mary Potter Hospice.  Josie the wonderful Fabric-a-Brac organiser has had to stop receiving fabric for the fair there is just so much.  Tomorrow I will be halping measure and price ready for the big day on Saturday - we hope to see you there.

This is my haul from last year's Fabric-a-Brac. 

save the date

The trend now is to send out little cards letting people know when you are intending to get married and asking them to save the date.  Well this is a bit different because it is a save the date for fabric lovers.

Not only do you get to see what has been lurking in other peoples fabric stash but you get to feel good about it as Fabric a Brac is a fundraiser for the Mary Potter Hospice.

So note it in your diaries now - 13 November, 9 am to 1 pm, St Anne's Hall, Newtown.

See you there!
