Well, several fabric purchases...
You see, this website has a flat rate for shipping to Australia of up to 8 meters of fabric. So, I figured I may as well get my moneys worth and make use of the entire 8 meter allowance! So I have been saving my pennies and this is whats now coming my way...
2 meters of 'Mauverina' in navy blue to make the Vogue V8184 dress.
2 meters of 'Ceaser' in dark blue to make the Vogue V8184 dress.
2.7 meters of 'Claie-Aude' in red to make a blouse and a skirt.
1.3 meters of 'Wiltshire' in red to make ... ?
I especially like this pattern because my Mum was born in Wiltshire...
Exactly 8 meters of beautiful fabric in the post. I can't wait to get my hands (and scissors) onto it!
