Fabric Frenzy Favorites Revealed

Her lovely use of color, pattern and texture
drew 224 votes. Congratulations to you, SewnNatural!

Summer is almost ending

The only thought the arrival of the cold, my legs tremble! I love the heat, the sun, the colors, the sea, but also the winter colors, the holidays and the mountain, and these elements make me appreciate all the seasons.
I did not vacation this summer, no travel abroad, unfortunately, but fortunately I live on the sea so I enjoy it.

I have many programs for September and October, I just need time to achieve !!
I do not know if I will be able to participate in fairs and markets, but still I want to keep ahead of the holidays ...
I want to make collections with autumn and winter colors, although usually the colors in my shop are there for the whole year.
I do not want to eliminate the color from my shop, because they are my Mood "Joyful",
so my fun and colorful collections will not fail,
but a collection of "Noir" there must be, I also like the black!
But I do not want to reveal my future collections .... hehe
Promotions and giveaways coming soon!

I finally bought something for me on Etsy!

I would like to buy...
LOL

I do not have resisted, to try one of these soaps

The fragrance for this item is Cotton Candy
for the cupcake and Acai Berry for the icing!!
*Acai Berry: A Sweet Berry fragrance.
Similar To Bubble Yum Bubble Gum!
I bought these soaps from AnitacraftyCreations

BEAUTIFUL FELT CAKE PINCUSHION
♥ Handmade by Daisy daydreams
I love the details of this pincushion
finished off with felt strawberry,
cream swirl and waffers.
Beautifully made.
I bought because I was in love once I saw it,
and why every time I sew,
I always put the needle attached to the pants...

One thing I want to buy is an image of some artist,
to put in a frame to hang in my living room,
but it's hard to choose,
because I have the purple wall,

and for sale on Etsy, there are a billion beautiful ...

But I have some favorite artists ...

but if any artist wants to do a swap with me,
I would be happy!
