Ok, so maybe it is going a bit far to equate fabric to a new baby, but it was a bundle that brought lots of joy today!!!
Rosie got the first pre-release pieces of her new fabric range from Japan today!! She still has to wait a while longer for her bolts but she got 2 meters of each today so that she can start creating with them.
We sat at my coffee table making a millionty combinations in fondle heaven....just look at all of this yummy fabric goodness...
Maybe this is just the kick start that I need. I have been being soooooo slack design wise and enjoying it! I have so many ideas in my head but I just don't seem to be getting to the studio at all, I keep making up excuses to do other things like painting walls, getting addicted to facebook (big mistake!), socializing and just generally being a slacker. I think maybe I just needed a post-book rest and have been waiting for that splurge of creative energy to return.
So I stole this selection of fabrics from Rosie with the ideas of turning them into a beautiful new bag before the week is out.
I am hoping that now that I have declared it here, I may actually do it!! Here's hoping!
Melly.
Blogs are so interactive where we get lots of informative on any topics nice job keep it up !!

Love the new Melly & Me banner! So much to catch up on after being gone 2 weeks. Gorgeous fabrics. I wouldn't be able to stop gazing at and touching the new fabrics...so yes, just like a new baby.
