New stash!

Finally on my birthday I received the kit which I ordered on February. It t0ok over a month to get it, however I'm glad I eventually got it on my hands. I saw that kit somewhere couple years ago and since then I've wanted to have it. So here it is, "Little kisses" by JCA.



I also got nice hand dyed fabrics! On my last post I mentioned Sparklies and I was waiting for my order from her. Here's a pic of the two amazing fabrics that I got. Both are Lugana, green one (Sunlit forest) is 32ct and yellow (Lemon and lime) is 28ct. Both looked quite a lot different than in pictures, but I know how difficult it is to take a picture of hand dyed fabrics, so I don't mind they don't look exactly the same. Plus I really love lemon and lime colours, so it's better it's not as light coloured as on the website! Sunlit forest looked more blueish on the website and I wish it would be more blue. Still, I like the green too :)



I joined Silkweaver's FOTM (fabric of the month) again after few years. I received my first package last week. I chose to receive 28ct Lugana only. Size will always be 18x27. My first fabric was Days gone by. It's a really beautiful fabric and I failed to take a good picture of it. But here it is. It's not as dark as it seems to be in the pic. It's more like light sand with some with on it. Now it looks a bit grey which it isn't.



Now I'm waiting for a parcel from Sparklies again. LOL, yes! I won two piece of fabric from her Easter sale on Facebook. Hopefully I'll get them this week. Exciting!
