Some Stash Empire Building ....

..... Quilting Fabbie-style:


I had to spend some time in Mount Waverley yesterday, helping out my elderly parents with the visit of the  Chronic Heart Failure Nurse from Cabrini Hospital (sounds very ominous doesn't it?) and then with a doctor's visit to care for the open wound on my DM's leg (she knocked her swollen calf on the hospital bed and caused an enormous haematoma on her leg (about 2 inches long by over 1 inch wide!).  So, after I finally dropped them off home I went to have a very late lunch right next door to the Quilt shop, Somerset Patchwork and Quilting, in Mount Waverley - Natch!

I just couldn't resist these 19th century reproduction fabrics:





and the gorgeous colours of these variegated threads from DMC.

Hope your parents are ok. I'd find being next door to a quilt shop very dangerous. Love the fabric, what are you planning to make with it??

I pray that your parents will be well & that your DM's leg heals quickly. What beautiful fabrics! I always had a soft spot for 19th century reproductions ... also the 1930s reproductions.
