... a "Paris Flea Market" layer cake by Three Sisters that was given to me for Christmas by a sweet friend who had seen me drooling over this yummy range! :0) I'm making up my layer cake into a quilt for our guest room and trying to stick to the K.I.S.S. principal ...
Keep

Stoopid!
Tee! Hee! Hee! I have to keep reminding myself NOT to start planning appliqué or stitcheries ... just to let this gorgeous fabric range shine. Sometimes we can get so caught up in making complicated patterns and adding lots of extras, that we lose the magic of the fabric ... so I'm trying to remember to K.I.S.S. as I go along. :0) It's been a lovely way to enjoy some sewing without stressing ... keeping the FUN factor alive in my creation. What do YOU stitch/sew/work on when you want to de-stress?? Hopefully you're getting to do a bit of that sort of stitching this week! :0)
Alrighty ... I'm off to cut some border strips for this sweet project ... I was smart enough to stock up on some metreage as soon as the WHOLE range arrived at Quilters Angel. :0) And I'm glad I did ... cos Marion said they've already sold out of a couple of fabrics, so ... if you want some of this YUMMY range of fabric for your very own self, pop into the shop, ring or email Marion or Steph ... and let me know what YOU'RE making from my new favourite range. :0)

I sure know what you mean about being LOOPY (meaning me)!! lol!! But, even tho you've been "out of the loop" in blogland, it sounds like life has had some fun hours/days. Those can be good for the memory bank. =)
sewing...and spinning...or other crafting can certainly be soothing to the soul. May you find soothing comfort as you sew your beautiful fabrics.

Anyone can be 'normal' it takes someone special to be loopy :-)
I adore that range too. I have a little stash of it but I am still at the stroking and sighing stage. Lol. Enjoy playing.

Totally hear you on the struggle with keeping up.... I'm way behind on blogging catch ups, emails and everything else. Sometimes too many things happen at the same time and make life just plain CRAZY!
Enjoy your simple sewing and down time Kris... you deserve it.

Lovely fabric you have to play with. Keeping the finished product means you get to admire the pretties for a long time too.
Enjoy relaxing with you fabric.
