It's hard to do a crafty blog when all your current stitching is secret! So, I thought I would ask the question, 1930's fabric for my "Sunshine in your Pocket" stitchery quilt?I do love 1930's prints, but I have never really bought them, so this is my complete collection at the moment, most of them I have bought from Ballarat Patchwork just recently. We live in a 1930's house, and there are lots of prints with bunnies, but I have hesitated buying even more because I know once I do, I'll start collecting.. Do you think they would look good with the redworks? I thought they might suit the nursery rhyme theme?
Kelly has just started stitching her "Sunshine in your Pocket" so take a peek here!
Lise has also posted a pic of the little lady bug bag that I sent her as a gift in my giveaway here.
And have a peek at what I won on Maree's blog last night! Luck me
Well, its 2 degrees here at the moment, and snow is falling every now and again. I hope you had a great weekend!

I love the muted colours and sweet little characters and flowers in those 30s fabrics - they're certainly full of sunshine! I can see how they might become addictive.
Lucky lady winning that giveaway - lovely spotty summery bag!
Don't tell anyone, but the SUN is out here!
I'd say definitely yes for the 1930s - they will look gorgeous and go really well with the nursery theme - I'm envious of your yellow - I can't seem to find any nice yellow prints lately! I'll have to pop over to BP and have a look! Lucy x
Pretty fabrics, I'm a bit scared of them (wouldn't know how or where to use them) but I like them all the same.
Congrats on winninig maree's giveaway.

1930's fabrics are beautiful and very, very addictive...vbg. I think they would look perfect with redwork and especially a nursery rhyme theme.
Congrats on your win Rachel. Maree's bag she made looks great!! I dont have any 1930's fabric sadly but I do like your little collection you have going though. Jo x

Love the 30's fabric Racheal. Wasn't it cold today. I kept looking out the window waiting for snow - finally saw some tonight.
Those fabrics will look perfect with nursery rhyme stitcheries! Look forward to seeing how it progresses.
