My first fabric purchase for the new house

A few weeks ago I went wandering in Evesham. We had only moved in a couple of weeks previously and I was still exploring the town and finding my bearings.

I came across a "curtain and other odds and ends" shop on a backstreet (a couple of people had mentioned it before) and decided to go and have a look inside.

As I said it had loads of upholstery fabric and a curtain making service, and it also sold loads of off the shelf bedding and curtains with really old fashioned designs (mostly aimed at old people I suppose ;-) ).

But tucked away in the back corner they had a little section of Fabrics on the roll and for the most part they weren't all bad.

The minute I saw the two designs below I fell in love, and instantly bough A LOT of it. Asked me what I was going to make with it and my reply would have been "I haven't got a clue!!", but now I have an idea.

Watch this space as I will show you soon, but in the meantime...

Who agrees with me that this is absolutely lovely?
