Mmm new stash!

The postman visited yesterday with a lovely envelope stuffed full of this loveliness...

 

A layer cake of Rural Jardin - beautiful, just beautful.

A few Fig Tree fat quarters to add to my 'collection'

Some Cosmo threads. I can't find a supplier of these in the UK so I scoured the earth to find them...well, that's what it felt like anyway! Having determined that I would have to buy from abroad I wanted, of course, to make the most of the postage. I'm looking forward to trying them out - I've read a lot of good things about them in Blogland. The autumny shades pack goes with a BOM that I'm collecting...I've not begun making it yet so I can only say that I'm collecting it! The other bag of Cosmo is the Spring collection and I have plans for a meeting of those with my Fig Tree collection :D

Fig Tree Madeleine pattern - no idea when I'll get around to making it but I've liked it since I saw it previewed last year and I have plenty of Patissierie jellyroll left overs to use :D

So many ideas floating around in my head that want to be made...just need an injection of Time now! 

I spotted Matthew setting up the Sky+ to record every football match under the sun in South Africa this morning so I think that when we're not out and about actually doing sport we'll be overwhelmed by it on the television! Thank goodness I have portable stitching to take out and about with us and what a good job I don't watch a lot of television myself, lol! Although I am very eager to see the new season of Private Practice...I'm fairly sure that Violet survives but I'm certain that it's going to be a roller coaster first episode with the need for a box of tissues!

That stash looks very nice indeedy. Lush colours, especially the threads.

I can't wait for the first ep of Private Practice. I agree it's going to be a doozy! Violet has to survive, doesn't she?? I do hope so but she hasn't been in the trailers...

I ended up watching the first ep of PP as soon as I could, but haven't watched any other eps - saved myself for those... so I am seriously looking forward to it coming back. But I am in serious withdrawal since the Grey's finale... even went and re-watched some old eps between BSG viewings! LOL

Gorgeous fabrics. It feels like getting a present if you buy overseas despite you paid for it yourself.
