Me Made March Day 12

I was really spoilt today as my parents took pity on me and took me out for lunch as I was all on my lonesome, so I got to go to a lovely fabric shop and scored some vintage-y looking flower print fabric, got some pretty white cotton with small blue flowers from a charity shop along with two linen napkins and a lovely piece of patterned silk.  Haven't taken photos of the fabric yet but here's the outfit I wore whilst shopping:

Me wearing my lovely yellow lotus cami, green skirt with the little flowers and a shop bought green short cardi.

Apologies for the crap photo as despite taking my camera with me I completely forgot to ask my parents to take a picture of me!  D'oh!

I did however help my mum sort through her airing cupboard and scored some duvet covers and sheets to use for muslins if I ever make one and for quilt backing and whatever else I can think of.  I'm also trying not to be tempted by Cyd at The Antipodean Artisan to buy shoes from here, but if I could I'd have these:

Perfect summer shoe - deargdoom

19/01/11Couldn't decide between these shoes and the plain beige version. I plumped for these ones and it was definitely the right choice as they are such a statement shoe. Love the heel on it, plus they're surprisingly comfortable.

If I had all the money in the world...

I'd be buying these goodies:

Amy Butler Sandalwood Jacket from Raystitch

I like this soft pink pattern fabric on the version they have here but I'm thinking this fabric:

Again this is from Raystitch

I like how bright this fabric is but I'd need about 3 metres of it and at £5.50 per half metre *gulp* I'd have to be certain that I LOVE the pattern and fabric and wouldn't stuff it up or decide once I've made it that it's not for me!

And while I'm still virtually shopping, I'm really liking this:

Lauren and Jessi Jung fabric from you've guessed it Raystitch

I'm thinking this would make a really striking skirt, oh how I yearn to buy it!

I stopped looking at this point as when I totted up all the fabric I'd need and the pattern cost it came to nearly £70.  Yeah, I know it's cheaper than a Monsoon coat and skirt and I can use the pattern again and again, but still...*sigh*.

What's on your wish list?
