Lots of fabric!

We brought an extra bag back from Florida which was about 50% full of this:

Fabric is so much cheaper in the US that it was hard to resist. The only thing that restrained me was that none of it was ethical so I didn't go mad as I try my best to only buy fair trade organic cotton. 
Little e will get a Snow White costume out of it (in fact I think I have bought enough fabric to make 2 costumes!) but the Royal Blue velvet looks distinctly purple in natural light...

It was strange to walk round Joann's and see all the products I read about on the blogs, I would have definitely brought some Mod Podge home if space allowed but no such luck!

Now to decide what to do with it all but I have 50 wedding invites to do for the middle of May so it may be a while before any sewing gets done!

Off on my holidays!

There is much excitement in the house today, we head to Florida tomorrow with an unknown return date as they have moved the shuttle launch we hoped to see and if it is rescheduled for before the 3rd May we are going to extend our stay to see it!

I am going with a spare hold all in the suitcase so I can fill it with loads of crafty goodies, can't wait!!

Back in a couple of weeks
