Sew Much Stuff

Ok, I'm sorry I just can't pass up this opportunity. I have to show you. Recently, I got whole bunch of new sewing things (as you can tell I was extremely low on fabric. Kept on using my scrap fabric) and I just wanted to show you.




The first thing I got was 2 limited fabrics from the Victoria and Albert Museum.  

Let me explain. I was in London for vacation, and I decided to go to the Quilting Museum to see what it was like. They had quilts that dated back to the 1700s (I think). So at the end there was lots of fabrics and since I was extremely low I needed some, so I choose 2 fabrics. If you are in London, why don't you see the exhibit. Click here to see it. It only runs through March 20-July 4 2010. Also if you want some of there fabrics and want to buy them online, click here to buy fabrics online. You can also buy them squares for quilting (but only in British Pounds e.g. £. All fabrics are in British Pounds).

The next thing I got (from the Victoria and Albert Museum) was a I new pincushion heart. My tomato is starting to get old.
Then I got a brand new pair of scissors (from the Victoria and Albert Museum) for cutting thread.









The last thing I got from the Victoria and Albert Museum, was a small rottery board with a ruler.
Now the rest of things, are from America NOT from the UK.
So I got A couple of fabrics from Quick Cuts. They are very bright and funky!
Then I got a new tool to make straps easily.
Then 3 new patterns.
I got some more fabric, but this time it is “dog” related.
I got some more fabric.
Another sewing pattern.
I got 3 rolls of fabric, which were on sale.
Two pollyester elastic bands.
The last thing I got was a ironing board with a cutting board on the other side, along with a ruler.

Well that is it! Check out my Vanilla Cupcakes here, which are own my cooking blog... That is Suspiciously Delicious! Click here!
