〰 stitchy / fabric stash 〰 from Charm About You



I'm a busy bee over here, so many projects being planned and worked on. Of course when you craft, you need supplies!

It's time to make plans, thinking about what next year will bring and sorting out sewing projects. I'm hoping to get things in order over the Christmas break, sorting out my sewing stuff ready for a fresh start in 2020. Recently there have been a few stash additions, I've been out in Manchester stocking up and enjoying cheese toasties, and finally sneaking some project finishes in!

As I continue to work on my Manx Log ...
