As a reward for finishing my exam (although I am yet to sit it!!) and therefore the first unit of my masters of management studies, I bought some yardage and 30cm strips of the gorgeous, gorgeous fabric you see in the above photo (click for a larger image) from my LQS on Monday while Romily was at playschool. Most of this is destined for dresses for Romily - I'm just waiting for my Sandi Henderson Portabello Pixie 'Claire' pattern to arrive in the mail and we'll be making up some gorgeous dresses and tops for summer.I am loving the combination of red, yellow, white and black. I think the left over fabric might be destined for a quilt...for me - I haven't made one for me yet. I think it's just about time!
The exam is tomorrow afternoon. Three hours. I feel like I'm an undergrad student again! Wish me luck :)

Cute fabric. Lucky, lucky Romily.
Good luck on the exam.
Best of luck tomorrow! I love those white poppies on red.
Break a leg tomorrow! (In case you don't know - a stage expression that means "good luck" but doesn't jinx anything.) I'm sure you'll do well - and will be so glad it is behind you.
The reds are marelous! Those girl patterns by Portobello Pixie are so cute - sure wish my son and daughter-in-law liked them so I could make some for Sophie and later Lily. Unfortunately when I showed them her designs they said "they just didn't fit their lifestyle.
Good luck for tomorrow - you have already achieved so much.
Love the fabric and can't wait to see what you can make it up into.
Lovely fabrics. I like those 2 red floral ones. Can just envision a lovely dress or skirt with it.
BTW, how was the exam?
I love the fabrics. For the first time Chereise wasn't in either pink or purple today - she was in red! It's the only red thing she has, but I can't wait to make something else red for her as it really suited her... maybe a nice red christmas dress should be added to my to-do list lol.
Hope your exam went well!
Good luck on your exam! The Claire pattern for dresses is just adorable. Cute, cute, cute! Romily will be pleased.
Best of luck Lily, I know you'll blitz the exam, superwoman that you are! Love the fabric and the amazing skirt you made for Romily.
Luscious indeed.
Hope the exam went well.
Gorgeous fabrics! Sorry, I’m too late to wish you luck on the exams!
