Tins, Pins and Red Roses

I can never walk past the Cath Kidston shop in my local big 'town' without having a quick browse, I love the patterns and colour on her products, and whenever my birthday rolls around she is always on my wish list. Last week whilst out shopping, I happened to pass her shop (not really a coincidence) and found myself drooling over her products inside, I spied this very cute red rose pin book. I love vintage tins and the red roses on this tin really caught my eye, when I opened the tin book I was sold.

It was filled with sewing pins! I am always happy to have more pins.

On the same shopping trip I also found this cool vintage tin, I love the old fashioned clothes and scene displayed on the tin. It has 16 plasters (bandages) in it, all with vintage pictures on them.

After my recent sewing project of making a pillowcase dress for the great charity pillowcase dress for poverty, it has spurred me on to think about my next sewing project. Unfortunately my miserable low amount of fabric in my fabric box has stopped me from moving forward with any sewing.
This week I finally managed to order a load of fabric, after finding a great fabric shop online, who sell the most beautiful fabric and haberdashery items in their online shop. I am alway nervous about ordering online to new companies, but I was really pleased with the quick service, and a small gift they put in every order!

 

Roses,roses, roses..how I adore thee!

My fabric stash is now very much 'open for business' again, I have a something in mind for my next project which involves my new fabric, glue, and ribbon, now all I need is to find some time to do it.......
