Flags, Fabric and A Fabulous Cake

25 Mar

1   There are three of these fluttering flags outside a local school. What a lovely thing.

      Knowing KJ, my daughter, it would have tasted good too! Pity I didn’t get to taste any but they are in London and we are in Cornwall 🙂

    What a colorful post! I especially love the flag. Do you know if the school children made them?

    I always love looking at packages of fat quarters.. they almost inspire me to make another quilt. I like the way that they match the buttons on the calculator – nice coincidence.

      Thank you for the info that they are called ‘fat quarters’! I love the name but why are they so called?
      I was pleased by the serendipity of the matching colours too. 🙂

      I only bought some dark green fleece to back a pram blanket for L’s baby due in 3 weeks. I just love being in the shop being surrounded by all those glorious fabrics. 🙂

      Off to the charity shops now to seek out silk ties! 🙂

    The rolls of material look like flowers. I don’t know how you color coordinate all your displays….but you do.
    Thanks for sharing the cake. I think..
    At least I am drinking a coffee while looking. 🙂
