Please don't shake your head at me for going to the Home Patch again. I really needed cheering up today so I thought a spot of Christmas shopping was in order. The fabric I bought is very different to what you usually see on my blog, but it was so much fun choosing them. They are all destined to be zippered bags or journal covers for Christmas gifts. Well that's the plan anyway.......it may end up being for next Christmas.
These fabrics are quite out of my comfort zone, so Michelle very kindly shared her opinions about my choices.........and some were put back on the shelf.

They look even fresher and brighter in real life. So beautiful fabric, a deep breath of H&P inspiration, and some retail therapy has worked wonders for me today.
Now where is that bag pattern?............
