Embroidery skills somewhat lacking - and not helped by being long-sighted and working without enough light, but I am overall pleased. Daughter has bagged one and the other will be a gift for a neighbour. They are about 9cm long. On to my birds next

sallykate Dec 2023 4:14pm, 31 Dec 2023 12,980 posts	0 sallykate Grrrr - finally cutting out fabric for a quilt I'd planned for my niece's wedding (nearly 18 months ago!). I decided to switch the order of a couple of fabrics in the log cabin piece and of course that means I don't have quite enough of one of them - and I can't find any more in the same design. Thought I'd come on here as I remembered a list of useful fabric shops but that's gone...can anyone recommend a good site for quilting fabrics? I bought the original from Minerva.
