Me on Monday ~16

I had a parcel delivered today. An order that I made on Friday has arrived super-quick. if I'd known it was being delivered today I'd have left work much earlier and driven home much quicker!  As you can see, my photo for today's Me on Monday involves much stroking of lovely fabric ready to make a new quilt. 

As the evenings have got a little darker a little quicker, and the temperatures have dropped a little lower and my fingers have crept a little closer to the central heating controls, the quilts that I keep in the lounge are getting a lot of use.  I like to snuggle underneath one in the evenings, so does my daughter and the dog seems to think that anything soft is fair game as a cushion for her.  So I saw this lovely fabric over at Hulu Crafts website and next thing you know, an order had been made
How was your weekend?  We had a really relaxing time and it was nice not to have anything in particular to do.  It really was a furniture shop browsing, new doormat buying, staircase painting, homemade Thai green curry cooking, Strictly Come Dancing watching, new quilt planning, falling asleep after Sunday lunch kind of couple of days. 
And here we are at Monday again, giving up a wave to Sian, whose idea 'Me on Monday' was originally.

oh, such beautiful colours! I'm blown away these days with how quickly things can arrive - remember those old days of "allow 28 days for delivery", when you had to send an SAE for a catalogue before you could even order?How did we ever get anything made?

Have a great week

That fabric looks wonderful.
After a very hot day yesterday, it's feeling a lot more autumnal today.

What a lovely colour palette. Perfect to snuggle under a quilt, during the Winter months, that gives a promise of Spring to come.

Such pretty colours indeed - snuggling under one of these will be a joy. Thank-you for the weblink - what a great site. Duly bookmarked!

Oooo.. those colours make me want to stroke them too! I've been thinking of making a quilt or two myself. My daughter has several and I always look admiringly when we got out and she unpacks them for picnics or to snuggle inside.
