glorious knits and wovens

Isn't it just wonderful getting your mitts on gorgeous fabrics!!
Some of my favourites are this super soft new Chenille $24 per metre, Hand-dyed Pure Wool Felt from $7.95, Wild & unusual Vintage Chenille ( i have quite a collection i do confess!) from $2 per piece, Hand-dyed Pure Cotton Interlock (specifically made here in Melbourne and dyed as skin tones for toymaking) $20 per metre and Cotton rich stretch Velour $50 per metre.
There are so many gorgeous things to make and i often stand in front of my fabric stash and the wonderful fabrics in the shop and just go into a flat spin! rather giddy!
