Raggy rainbows


One of those little chores which gets side-lined for months - washing the stiffness out of new fabrics. I am not one for bright, busy, decorative patterns; exquisitely simple prints are joyful to me.



This one is my very favourite - I bought a whole metre of it and almost bankrupted myself, just in case I never found it again. It's style number 31944-4 in the 'Cat in the Manor' range from Windham Fabrics.


But they all looked lovely once they were hung out to dry.



Raggy rainbows.






While I was playing Mrs Tiggywinkle, I tea stained a length of poplin too.




Spot the cat - not in the manor, but in the strawberry patch.


This blogger has an awesome amount of gorgeous fabrics - makes my stash look like a drop in a puddle.
