Liberty's habadashery

I wish I lived nearer to London ! I love their fabric department. last year I bought a roll of Liberty fabric, and almost a year later I have actually used some, I've not wanted to use large pieces of it on one project, so I have combined the liberty prints with some others and I've started to make a lap/wall hanging, using an 8 pointed star, but me being me, decided that, I would try out my freemotion skills, and write some bits from the intro of Liberty s Book of Home Sewing. Well 4 hrs later!, and lots of up picking!  did I say I can't spell  ?  Well I can but when I look back at it again the letters are jumbled up !. My son is dyslexic, I think I am too. This is the first time I have done any freemotion sewing apart from having a practice on scrap fabric first, think it's quit effective, and fingers crossed spelt right.

I love liberty's !

This time last week, I was celebrating my 46th birthday, with a trip to London, with my lovely mum. Our first port of call, as always was Liberty's for their beautifully habadashery department, it was quite at the time so I was able to take a few nice photos, this one is of a really cool mannequin grouping where they are standing in silver bubble wrap bags! Wearing pom pom type wigs, Oh what i wouldn't give to spend the day, working with their VM team! I've got more photos come.
