Inspiration Awaits!

Look what arrived at my house this week....


I was lucky enough to win the Shecanquilt SMS 


giveaway recently!


Thanks Leanne for your generosity....

I love this range of fabric.....


And look how much I have!

Probably enough for 2 quilts...



and maybe a purse or pouch or two?



A book bag from the alphabet fabric?

I'd love to hear your ideas on what I could do with 


this wonderful fabric!


Maybe granny squares?


Or a stained glass quilt?

Until then I will content myself with this...




A new winter dress!


Happy sewing

I'm sure that anything you do with the fabric will look great - it is just simply great fabric! Insanely jealous!!! And I'll be interested to see how your dress turns out - would you wear it with tights/boots or with pants underneath?

Leanne said...

I am so glad you like it. I have one project on the go with mine but am still trying to decide what else to make too.

Marg said...

It's gorgeous fabric, I have no idea what you could do with it, but I'm sure whatever you make will look fabulous.

So funny- I just posted what I'm making with Summerville. You hit the jackpot with that huge pile of fabric!! I really like the idea of a cloth book. That dress is so fabulous, I'm impressed you can sew clothes too, is there anything you can't do?

Someone made a cute bag out of it at the retreat. The fabric combines well with plain linen or calico. I also have seen the cutest bits of fabric filled in with embroidery, that goes exceptionally well! Best of luck and have fun!

What a great haul! Well done!
Love the dress pattern, are you wandering into the exciting world of knits?

Fantastic!
I think they would look good paired with a solid colour with a shoofly type block?

Oh! Wow! I love that line! We have it in the shoppe and it is soooo tempting. I am sure you will find the perfect project. I love the look of alphabet fabric as a background....just a thought...hee hee! Great dress pattern.

I love Summerville. Can't wait to see what you have made.
I might have to get that dress pattern, too. It looks right up my style.

You're so lucky - be sure to buy a lottery ticket this week :) I just purchased a fat quarter of the whole lone. It's so wonderful. I don't know what to make yet but will definitely save it for a special project.

Lucky you! I love the Summersville fabric, I bought a little last week to make into a wristlet. Looking forward to seeing what you do with yours!

Wow I love this fabric too. I saw that you could embroider some of the letters and houses or colour them in with Fabrico pens.

A stained glass quilt with Summersville prints! Of course, that's what you should make =D

Cindy said...

What to make? What to make? This is so exciting!

Claire Jain said...

Oooh da lolly! That's a sweet stack of Summersville. I can't wait to see what you make :-)
