THE GREAT NOVEMBER FABRIC EXCURSION - Was Epic!


On Saturday I met up with some fabulous bloggers almost all that I had met before. Steph, Santie, Claire, Dibs But also some new faces. I was pleased to meet Alana and Nikki for the first time too!
I was also thrilled for Dibs who as you can see here is waiting for her lovely little boy to come!
We hit the fabric shops straight away but most of us were pretty restrained up until after lunch.
Goldhawk Road did not disappoint as usual and we had a great time not leaving until it was dark! Of course laden with fabric!
Claire was also kind enough to give me this cute little tin and a multi coloured pencil for pattern drafting!
So what did I buy? I have to admit I could have bought a lot more! I had a plan and I pretty much stuck to it but I didn't even get everything on my list.
This cotton is for a wrap dress
This cotton is for an unidentified christmas present.
I think me, Steph and Dibs all bought this cotton sateen. Its so fabulous!
This poly was the bargain of the day. Just £1.25 per metre!
I had my eye on this linen last time I went to Goldhawk road and so I had to get it the next time around!
My favourite thing of the day however was this awesome lobster print that I'm going to turn into a shirt dress!
I had such a brilliant time and I can't wait to do a bigger outing again soon!
