Missing mail and received mail

I received a lovely little package from Amitie yesterday and I think I am planning to use them on some birdie appliques on tshirts for the girls.

On a more disappointing note I am still waiting on an order from Fishpond from 11th April. Apparently something happened at the warehouse with the batch of orders mine was in. I'm waiting on Weekend Sewing and Artisian Bread in 5 Minutes. Needless to say I won't be ordering from them in future, I think I'll stick with the Book Depository. I've also noticed another book that looks good Sewing Green so I might do a big hint for Mother's Day.

I don't think I've posted a photo of this dress/top I made Lucy a while ago. I used some lovely Amy Butler I got at the Remnant Warehouse before Christmas and the reverse side is a lovely grey cord. I teamed it with a light grey long sleeve tee and tights today and lots of mums at school were commenting on it.

Just a quick edit: I am loving Google Reader but I just noticed tonight that I am getting updates from Wednesday tonight. I normally check everyday so I just wondered if that had happened to anyone else.

That Amy Butler fabric looks great. I love pinafores on little girls. How disappointing about your books! I hope they arrive soon.

Pretty dress... love the colour.

I did a book depository order a couple of weeks back, Sewing Green was on my list before I edited it, please review it if you get it, I'd love to hear what it's like in real life.

Cass, Lucy's top is divine. No wonder you were the talk of the playground!

Oh very cute! Love the little buttons.

Yes, I love book depository. Never had a problem with them and they're so fast and reasonably priced.

The little green pinafore is adorable. No surprises why you were getting comments!

Belinda said...

What a let down. It's crazy to think that it's faster to get it from half way around the world! I hope it reaches you soon.

That little pinny is lovely! Such a shame about your books. I hope they arrive soon. I have dropped some hints for Weekend Sewing for Mothers Day but I don't think I will be using Fishpond in a hurry.
