Christmas in July...?

Summer is here! The sun is shinning! Lots of time to sit in the garden and enjoy all those light warm summer evenings. Ummmm ...


Maybe we should take advantage of this weather and get ahead of ourselves. Christmas is only 173 making days away and if the sunshine does arrive in september/october again this year, we will want to be rushing out into the garden for a quick bbq not making stockings and lavender hearts for the school fair.
Shop display on Sunday 1 July for the Frome Artisan Market including christmas tree

So now is the time to be bold and brave. Buy that christmas stash and get those projects started. You will soon have a large collection of stock ready for all those last minute gifts, school fairs and house decorations. 


We have just received the first of the Christmas collections in from Riley Blake.


The first is 'Santa's workshop'



Beautiful bright fresh prints, small enough for those little projects or as a babes 1st christmas quilt 
by the metre, FQ, charm packs and layer cakes





Also 'Apline Wonderland'

A contemporary collection of greens, reds and blues. Birds and trees in winter scenes. Perfect for christmas tablecloths, napkins and quilted coasters.

Finally, Riley Blake Advent Calendar Panel 
A simple and effective way to create a family advent calendar which can be used year after year
  The panel includes the calendar, softies in christmas scenes and a holiday banner. 




This is just the start of the christmas collections, we have many more to come including Michael Miller and Moda

What will you make?

I have been using the time I would usually spend in the garden making Christmas cards!
Lovely material...
