New in ...

There have been lots of new bits and pieces arriving in the shop over the Christmas holidays. First up the Hollyburn Skirt pattern by Sewaholic.

"Especially for beginners, this is the perfect flared skirt! A wardrobe essential, the Hollyburn Skirt has just the right amount of flare. It sits right at the waist for maximum figure flattery, and features super practical pockets! This skirt pattern includes three different lengths with three different amounts of flare. The shorter the skirt, the more flared the silhouette!"

Next are these gorgeous shot cottons from Kaffe Fassett. It's hard to do these fabrics justice in a photo, for starters, they are on a higher quality base cloth than other fabrics, I think they have a higher thread count. But it makes them luxuriously soft and special. They are woven with two colours; one on the weft and one on the warp creating a  subtle 'shot' colour. I used them in this quilt...

Also just arrived are these lovely voile 2 prints from Anna Maria Horner's Field Study. Soft, drapey, extra wide and perfect for dressmaking.

There is lots more to arrive in the coming months, so I'll keep you posted!
