It Will Be all White on the Night 25% off

Hello and happy monday everybody

Lets talk white.....
Bella Solids, these make great boarders, bindings (if you can be bothered to make your own, and backgrounds, I wouldn't be without Bleached White PDF 97, Bleached white 98 or Snow 11
the three I use when I'm using a light contrast

I would say white 97 is slightly toned down compared to 98 
which is your daz all white!
So in order for you to get your hands on a bargain and grab loads of white.
I am giving 25% of these three colours.

So instead of £2.00 a FQ it is £1.50 a FQ.

Discount has already been applied in the shop, and will last for one week.
Dont forget if you want a 1m purchase 4, 1.5m purchase 6, 2m purchase 8.

True Colours - Anna Maria Horner


By no means a new collection and a not so basic basic collection.
Freespirit collaborated with the designers to produce a 20 piece basics range in their own style and a rainbow of colours but each one limited so you can mix these pretty much into stash collection you have.

10 Cool Colours

10 Warm Colours


As you may know I love the basics , the stash builders, you cant go wrong, they are there ready to mix and match with.

Next week I have the first 4 arriving of this collection and will add to them every couple of weeks.

In 1988 Kaffe became the first living textile artists to have a one man show at the Victoria & Albert Museum. The exhibition attracted such crowds that the Museum doubled attendance figures during the run
