"heART a craft"

a collection of favourite images & ideas

collection no.9

 

so there was the 

"great BIG thread haul of 2013"

& i still have it all in boxes ....

mmm i'd love to store it all in some

visually delicious manner ....

something like one of these perhaps!

 

not particularly portable any of it but i figure

if i'm planning to leave the threads

i will need to plan & take the match required

or perhaps i'll go for more of a 'cabinet' idea

as i do like a bit of character

mmmm .... lets see hey!

she with the most ...

 so it started sometime a while back
with going halves in a whole lot

of lovely quality quilting cottons

& a great bulk buy of 'ribbons' which we spied as really bias binding!

yay ....

 then there was 4ths in

THE great big thread haul

which was a bit of a gamble
but for what we paid we figured

that if we went on face value plus one extra that was good value

whoooo hooo ... lets just say it was most certainly worth it!

each of us almost have the entire colour set!!

 & halves in this lovely lot too

& then there was some craziness

with a whole lot of denim & other lovelies

just had to be

yep there was a happy dance or so
you can even see the amazing micro suede
i made my cape from on the top of the pallet pile!

little people squeezed in between the rolls
there was some pink fur stroked all the way home!
.... and now to sew it up!
oh & do you think i might have a lifetime supply of thread perhaps!
i think so!!
