love to sew?

 Hi to all you lovers....
lovers of fabric that is!
I won this sweet little book over on Katy's blog
thanks Katy!!!
I will say hand on heart (scuse the pun)
that I'm not really a CK devotee.
However I'm not immune to their lovely fabrics,
so when I won this book I did do a little oohing!
Guess what my favourite page was??
Centre page spread!
 Is this porn for the ladies or what!!
I think it may be a reprint of a book that was out last year,
but as I don't own any CK books its all new to me.
It's a great little book full of inspiration, 
like the way the ric-rac has been used on the above cushion.
I think this may well be a do-er,
it's a bit like my vintage bag I bought from Donna Flower last year.

As for valentines...
valentine smalentine!!
pokes tongue out!

edited.
its not that I'm not feeling the love.
I just dont feel the need to celebrate on one day
when everyday should be special!!
and it is!

ps. we did have chocolate cheesescake however!

My sentiments exactly! Why do we need to be told when to show love?! It should be every day! ....and no I'm not just bitter because I didn't have a valentines. Honest!

I love that knitting bag! I may well just put away the yarn and bring out the fabric!

Im with you on the Valentine day thing - very commercial - unless you make your own cards,etc.

Wouldnt have minded a bit of the cheesecake tho - ;)

The centre spread of that book, is soo you.
