Default The Fabric I Won is Here! :)

Hiya folks. I was just emptying the dishwasher when the door buzzer
sounded. I thought it must be the parcel that I arranged to have
delivered today and which has a customs fee, so I went and fetched my
chequebook. The UPS man said there was no charge, so that was a bit
odd until I opened it. It is the competition fabric and it is waiting
to be washed!
I counted it all up and there are 15 meters, and - they gave me 3.5
meters of the dark blue watery swirls, which was my favorite when I
viewed the collection online. There is a meter and half of the dark
red swirls. I am in heaven. There is a meter of light blue, a
meter of light green, a meter of pale yellow (these are all crackled
looking) and various meter lengths of what looks like brightly colored
mosaic pieces from a smashed vase, if you know what I mean. I have
lengths of the mosaic effect in blue, green and a multicolor.
If my eczema weren't so bad, I would be swimming in it just now.
(The sizing drives my skin crazy). As it is, I think Sasha (QI) is in
there just now making "tents" out of the fabric. She likes helping,
and pretending she's camping I think.
That means another big fabric parcel is still to come. This must be
Fabric Day. Oh joy! They gave me a free pattern as well, and I can't
wait to start making stuff out of this lovely fabric.
Thanks for letting me share.
