Spots from Spotty


Living in a small country town I don't have the luxury of a fabric store , cruel I know , so I need to buy most of my fabric through mail order . I placed an order with Spotlight on Wednesday morning, received a very polite phone call from them in the afternoon letting me know what the price would be and received my spotty parcel on Friday morning .

After taking out the stuff I ordered that was unavailable all I was left with were spots !

It is spotty , dotty heaven here , I love them !

  1. Clare, what a ding-a-ling I would be! I didn't realize you lived in Australia - oh,you poor girl not having access to quiltshops and here I've been feeling sorry for myself because there is not one next door - so pleased Spotlight have been able to help and the spots look great!
    Hugs - Lurline♥

  2. It's a well kept secret, but I have a polka dot fetish! So I think your new goodies are great!

  3. Hey Clare! Oooohh! I'm with the previous commenter - I'm a dotty, spotty gal too!! One can never have too many spotty fabrics, I say!! And while I am feeling very spoilt at how much access I have to fabrics (Spotlight and three patchwork shops in town!) I've lived in Bourke, so know all about being isolated from sewing supplies!! Enjoy playing with your spotties!! Bear Hugs! KRIS

  21. Thanks for your comment on my blog. The Boutique Market on Sunday is the first one in that location, which is always touch and go but it should be fine as there's bound to be plenty of people around dining and shopping. By the way, love this bunch of spotty fabrics !! Christine xo
