visit to a newly discovered fabric store recommended to me by dina of little by little by bossymamma all the way from uk thank you dina i went to that store just to get some funky elastic but ended up with this lovely bundle tiny yellow acorns are from a collection autumn woods by kate birdie for moda fabric the cute hedgehogs are a part of bluebird park collection by kate birdie also printed in japan and the third print is a day in the country micro check generally i would choose pinks or pastels unconsciously but this time around i was drawn to the simplicity and calmness of these prints and the cuteness of the hedgehogs the mushroom stamp i bought recently at a craft store and the hedgehog one is a lucky find while on our trip to hong kong in july i already have a couple of ideas what to use these prints for i just wish i had more time to hide away in my little sewing nook without any distractions for cooking washing and useless things like that i am looking forward to my back
