Polka Dots from a long way away !

I was the lucky one to be partnered with Jill from Apple Avenue Quilts in the Polka Dot Swap .

Look want Jill sent me , a beautiful wall hanging , gorgeous fabric and the cutest buttons and tape measure that I know Lisa would really love .(Cute As Buttons)

What a lovely parcel I am thrilled with everything , thankyou so much Jill .

Catch it !

I joined up in a Polka Dot Swap that Stacey from Polka Dot Daze organised . My partner was Jill Apple Avenue Quilts and here is part of what I sent her along with dotty fabric and a few other bits and pieces . Thanks for organising the swap Stacey and thanks to Jill for being my partner .

In my mad house here I call my bags "catchits" they're really too pretty and frilly for me to wear out but we have a few around the house hanging on doorknobs and on the end of my bed to catch stuff ! All those fiddly bits end up in these bags that (I can't be bothered) really don't go anywhere else.

My rude family members have another name for my bags and yes we have a cat !

Almost forgot to show you what I won from Stephanie at Loft Creations for her giveaway . Her brand new bag pattern and a pack of the most gorgeous charm squares . I took a photo as soon as I received my parcel and then I couldn't find it on my camera and was too embarrassed to tell you that I got stuck into that charm square pack so quickly before I even posted about it .

Thankyou very much Stephanie your bag pattern is a delight !

You were wondering .......

You were wondering what I was going to do with all those lovely spots in the previous post .

Do you think I'm the sort of person that buys fabric just because I have to have it ?

Do you also think I'm just not brave enough to cut into it ?

Well you are absolutely right but I know I'm not alone with this .

I have found the perfect motivation for disrupting my polka pile - a swap!

Not just any swap A Polka Dot Swap !

Stacey over at Polka Dot Daze is having a swap for all the dotty girls and sign ups close in just a few days . If you need a good reason for cutting into your spots stash join in , it's going to be great fun .
