granny annie goodness

Graany Annie (aka my mum) and my brother David came to visit this weekend and I well and truely got spoilt. Mum is a bit of afabric addict like Tikki so we hit the quilting shopsjust for a look. I was very spoilt and mum purchased this great bag pattern along with some gorgeous amy butler fabric to make it with. Isn't she ace! It's for my b'day which is still over a month away. Hopefully I'll have the bag made by then!



She also spoilt me by giving me this quilt I have been hinting for. Well actually I've been harassing her for it :) Mum has made both my kids cot quilts (havei shown them off?) and both are made from flannel. I love the snuggly feeling and texture of quilts made with flannel. This one was one the first Mum made and I've always loved it. I'm normally not into floral but i so love this. I can' wait for the cool weather and then it's going straight on my bed!



I couldn't go to a craft shop and not purchase any fabric now could I. This is the little bundle i purchased. Some are intended for softies and other tee's. The light blue with the silhouettes was another gift from annie and I'm hoping to make it into a dress for tully. She better wear it if I do!



And last a few tee's ready for some paint. One for a little 2 year old miss who also has a softie ready for a gift but i forgot to take a pic of it, one for a promised prize and one for the shop. Hopefully my pixies will let me paint them today :)
