All about the fabrics

Today I went back to my favourite fabric shop, Abakhan. My dad had some business in Stoke and I jumped at the chance of stocking up on ribbons and the such like for my new fashion project. I even managed to look at the tweed and forcefully tear myself away: however mum says the 'No more tweed' concept was meant to be taken with a wider meaning- whoops. Well I got some lovely fabric to make myself a skirt with in the summer in a beautiful light blue colour.
When I went to get my fabrics (including some small pieces of tulle I'm going to use for samples) cut I was kindly informed that there were 50p bags of tulle going- why hello bargain!

Abakhan sounds amazing!
I am more restrained with colors myself in clothing, but admire everyone who wears them with pride. You do an excellent job with it!
