I ordered some supplies that are so pretty I have to show them to you. Here are a couple of twisted baker's twines, an unusually color combo of twine from a lovely Etsy shop.
I also received an unexpected parcel in the mail last week! Sheree sent me a lovely package full of fabric!
She treated me to a large piece by one of my favorite Japanese fabric makers, Lecien.
I couldn't help but smile at all these lovely pinks.
Sheree, you will have to tell us who made these? I love them! Thank you so much!
Finally, my shop is full of new dolls! Here are a few of them.
Sheree is a sweet girl, isn't she? Such a lovely pack of fabrics...
I love the peaceful look of your dolls...
Hugs
Ana

Bright minds think alike! Well, actually, I copied your idea from last week. I went looking for some pink/white twine like yours and found that Cammie at the Supply Pantry had a great price. I also purchased some of the vintage-colored mailing tags. Very nice! All that came my way earlier this week. -- Michele

Oo! Ooo! That last picture? I have that blue fabric and I love it. This week I was even brave enough to cut into it for a Princess C-W's friend's present.

You lucky, lucky girl, Emily. Those pink fabrics are some of the prettiest I've ever seen. No wonder you smiled!

I have been wanting one of your dolls for so long, but having the hardest time deciding which one to get. They are all so lovely!!! I finally made up my mind and bought a few. One for me and one for a Christmas gift. I'm sooooo excited for them to arrive. I just adore your dolls so very much.
Cheers,
Shannon

Lovely fabric... How fun it must've been to receive them in the post.

That last fabric is so awesome!

Hey Emily!
I am glad the package reached you safely. And even happier that you like the prints. The pinks are mostly Kaffe Fasset prints, or maybe Martha Negley? I'll look it up and send you the information. They are definitely from Westminster though.
Love the new dolls. Sweet as ever!
Talk soon,
Sheree
P.S. Leah is still goo goo over the pink bag you made us. :)
