First I'll show you my fabric ... 
I've had my eye on both of these ranges for a while ... particularly the Gypsy Rose ones - 
I don't know why it took me so long to buy this one cos it's soooo beautiful. I ended up buying them on ebay as I found some great 'package deals'.

I haven't decided yet what I'll be making from these ... I'll probably need a bit of time to just 'love them' first .... do you know what I mean LOL?? He he ... I bet you do :o).

I ordered them from "Book Depository" last week and I just love them. The quilting one is a fabulous reference with some gorgeous patterns ... 
I'm trying to do more adventurous quilting and I thought this book might be handy ... loads of patterns and clear instructions. And of course the Tilda one is to die for ..... 
I LOVE it ..... How cute is this little mouse??!! I can't wait to make some of the gorgeous things in this book!!!

I sent over a small gift to welcome her into the world and she sent me this gorgeous photo and card .... so chuffed ... isn't she a gorgeous baby!!!?!

I so understand what you are saying about loving the fabric first. I have 3 jellyrolls a twice the charm pack, a charm pack & a layer cake (all moda) and I get great joy just from getting them down opening them upnad looking at the fabric. But they willa ll becomae a quilt of bag or cushions one day soon I hope.

Like your new Glasses very chic! I love Beach-house too, and have just received mine from 'Fat Quarter Shop', not sure what I am making yet...might have to think on that one for a little while.
Hi Joy, just love the packs/jelly rolls you picked up......and the mouse pattern....so cute....hope your Mum is doing ok....Warm Regards Lyn
Love the fabrics & books, love the glasses and you can't help it if your eyes can't keep up with you.
YOU are not getting OLD, just your eyes can't keep up with your small work/looking/reading etc.....
great finds on ebay - it's nice to get goodies in the post! Love the new glasses...I got new ones recently - they get a little stronger each time I get my eyes checked....I know I am getting old! I might have to get a couple of machine quilting books to give me some inspiration.......
Love the fabrics & books....lots of fun goodies.....and yes, your glasses do look good.
I love your glasses.
Great fabric purchases .... Figtree and Blackbird Designs are always stunning. I have the Tilda book .... haven't made anything yet but enjoy just looking through it every now and then.
