Sweet Blue Bird Fabric

I visited Hobbycraft last weekend and picked up this pretty 'Blue Bird' fabric by 'The Henley Studio'. 
Not sure what I'll be using it for yet but it was too pretty to resist.
I also treated myself to this little book on making bunting by Kate Haxell which is full of lots of lovely inspiring projects for £4.99.
We've had a busy week with school trips and end of term activities. Just looking forward to the sunshine we've been promised at the weekend and the beginning of the summer holidays! Hopefully a nice lay in on Sunday (unless there's a good boot sale on...)

    Hi Jacqui - The blue bird fabric is lovely - I remember you said you liked the blue floral fabric of my coasters!

    I think the bunting book will be really interesting - there is a lot of bunting about, but it is good to get a new take on it - I have just made hand knitted rosette bunting/garland for my stall at my next Fair - and I'm quite pleased with it!

    Have a good weekend. Ruth

      Hi Ruth. Make sure you share a picture of your bunting as I'd love to see it. Is it to decorate your stall or have you made it to sell? I've seen some really pretty crochet bunting and must really learn to crochet. I can knit squares but haven't learnt to follow a pattern. Hope your fair goes well.
