yep…deciding what to restock my store with at the trade show was like being in a candy shop….all that choice, all those pinks, all that cute. Now I need to wait patiently for the orders to arrive on my doorstep….
Just think cute, just think japanese and think over 50 fabrics to choose from including Far & Away by Heather Ross (yipee!). I’m going to be one very busy lady but trust me when I say there is something for everyone and you won’t be disappointed! These photos were kindly taken in the Lecien corner by my assistant buyer for the day. It was nice to get a second opinion and have some company on the day…………
I should mention that retro daddy was my ‘manny’ for the day as the thought of being stuck at home with the twins for a few hours didn’t appeal to him (um hello welcome to my world retro daddy). And while he doesn’t ooh and ahh over bambi prints he was very impressed with the beautiful quilts and outfits on display. These projects are Melly & Me and Rosalie Quinlan and looked just fabulous.
You are one lucky girl! I can’t wait tos ee what you acquired and look forward to seeing some of it find a new home with me!!
I look forward to your shop opening again, Corrie! There are a few of my retro mummy purchases in the yoyo quilt I am working on.
Ooooohhhhhh aaaahhhhhhhh mmmmmmmm – Corrie what a choice – I wish I could come along to the trade show – I only have a Spotlight in close proximity and while it offers some great inspirations – Japanese cute is where I’m at!!!! Hope some lovelies are left for your online shop – have yourself a fun time amongst all that fabric goodness. xxx
Yah! So the Retromummy shop is re-opening? I don’t live anywhere near a fabric shop that sells cute Japanese stuff.
I don’t think I could sleep knowing that these babies were on their way – can’t wait to check it out
I can’t wait Corrie
I would definitely have to get opinions from others. The choices sound overwhelming.
