Wash Day

Do you wash your fabrics before using?  You see, I don't wash my fabrics so I was really concerned about my quilts shrinking and the colours bleeding when I decided to wash them. No worries at all - they all came through the wash beautifully.

All sorted

I've finally finished squeezing my store into our garage...well most of it. We closed our store in Jimboomba just over 2 weeks ago and for two weeks I have be sorting, cleaning, moving the whole house to accommodate all the stock. Boy, am I glad most of it is unpacked and found a home. This is what our garage looks like now. A bit different...





Doesn't look to bad...now to find a home for all the shop samples.
