WOW: Bringing in Sunshine

WOW = WIPs On Wednesdays
It's so cold and wintry down my way; the winds are howling and it's been raining non stop. 
I'm very grateful to be warm and cosy inside, doing what I love.

Yesterday I went back to Darn Cheap Fabrics to pick up some more Outback Wife bargain fabrics. They're selling them for $9 a metre which seems unbelievable considering I used to see them available for $40 a metre. I decided that I wanted a 'craft' carry around bag and, as it's something I can get done in a single day, it seems more likely that I will actually sit down to sew it. I was going to start it today, but I'm still looking online for handles and possibly even a bag frame to use. I will show you more once I have decided on a plan of action.

With Australis and Cherish about to launch, I thought it was time to reward myself with another bunch of flowers and I couldn't pass up on these Californian Poppies from the supermarket- they're my dose of sunshine on these gloomy days. How perfect and cheerful is this shade of orange? 
I have to admit, these flowers and my dose of bargain fabric shopping made braving the cold worthwhile and I'm feeling really good as I set to work on my WIPS.. I hope you're day is as productive as mine will be!

What's Your WOW?

  3. Poppies are one of my favourites and that colour is gorgeous. I wish we could bargain shop for fabrics here but I'm happy for you, Esther.

  4. Ooh those poppies, gorgeous! I had to laugh at your cold day, we are melting here with humidity so high you can cut it with a knife.
