Charm Heaven


These charm squares have really taken over the week.  I thought I would show you how pretty they are looking this evening.  Much to my dismay, after I took this photo I found Catherine's charms on the kitchen table!  I forgot to bring them with me up to the shop!  Sorry, Catherine. They're here - honest.


I cut thousands and thousands of charms from shop fabric, which I really honestly did enjoy doing.  I'm not sure I would want to do thousands more right away, but I could see us doing this annually if you guys are up for it! 


And of course the other gazillion charms came cut by our swap buddies.  Ladies, I so love the fabrics you choose to contribute.  They're gorgeous!  I'm not sure the post lady is thrilled with all of the extra work this week, but I couldn't wait to get home each evening and see what arrived!


I have one more piece to cut for the texty charm swap.  It's become a ritual this evening charm-cutting :)

    I'd be locking the doors and windows and denying everything - what fabric?

    I second Judith's comment! I'd have gone doo-lally-tap by now, cutting all that fabric, but you've been a real star organising this for us. And I, for one, would definitely be up for an annual swap. Very excited about getting the charm pack back! xx

    I guess if you have a fabric shop on your shelf you should like cutting fabric, I am looking forward to getting my charms, thank you for all the time cutting them.
