Oops ... I fell off the wagon!

I made a little trip out to a new-ish local quilt shop today, thanks to a call from a very good friend.

Seems whilst I was there this pile of Art Gallery Fabrics manages to smuggle their way into a bag, they even made it to the back seat of the car...




... And since they got that far ... well it would have been rude to have taken them back right?

So if you are in the Grantham area and fancy a very warm welcome, a cafe to park any unsuspecting man in tow, or to partake of a little light refreshment to bolster your spirits, and a lively selection of fabrics, I can highly recommend Stitchcraft Sudio.

Thank you Tina!

Lead astray. Uh huh. And who was leading who? ;o)

No wonder you were led astray! These are divine. If you're going to fall off a wagon you may as well fall onto a big pile of fabric x

Fabric has a way of doing those things.

That's just what you need, a quilt shop that is easily accessible. Lovely fabric though.

beautiful, but now I'll never be able to convince you to join us today, damn! Great choices though, I'm not surprised you couldn't resist!!! : )

Goodness me, how on earth did that happen? Aren't they gorgeous though? I bet you're really glad you did find their way into your car!

Oh how I would love an LQS with a little cafe *sob* but yippee for new buys!

You poor thing to be so tempted. I am sure that they will be turned into something beautiful. That shop is way to close for my bank balance! Di x

Truuuuudes, you naughty woman. Be honest, is that really all you got?! No online "well I've caved already" splurges?! Lovely bundle. :-)

Cindy said...

Cool! A new LQS? That's great news! I say give them tons of business - it's great to support them!

Lis Harwood said...

I've heard lots of good things about the QS and the fact that it has a cafe/man creche is something else to recommend it. Must make a trip soon.

I don't think you can blame yourself if the fabrics walked out of the shop and climbed into your car...

Hmmm, not sure I believe all of that!!

Wendy said...

Nicky said...

You did actually pay for them didn't you? Otherwise you could be off the wagon and into the clink!

Naughty lady - I blame Katy Jones for my mishaps!
