I am doubly lucky today - not only has my mum arrived for a visit, but she brought me all the remaining fabric from her house: I sorted through her stash last time I was in the US, to see what I'd like to keep, but didn't have space to bring it home in my luggage. Plus a friend sent me a load of stuff she was getting rid of, some of which I took home with me and some of which I didn't have space for. She's brought me small parts of the stash before, but this was all the rest of it, and quite a bit to boot, so it's like Christmas here at Chez North. Lots and lots of lovely pieces. The stuff in the bottom two photos is small pieces, mostly FQ size; the upper two pictures are larger pieces - the neutrals are 2 or 3 metres each, and the other are mostly half metres, with a few one metre pieces. A lot of them are tonals, which will be really useful. Exciting times!

Exciting times indeed! What fun it is to get fabric....for me there's nothing quite like it. I see you're going to have a lot more blocks 'lurking' round the house in the coming months. I hope you have a great visit with your Mom.
wow...will your mom come visit me and bring goodies too! :) im in the states...so much closer ;)
enjoy the stash...and the visit!
Oh well done mum!! That'll keep you busy for a while!!
Of course you will link us to this photo when you begin to show the blocks/tops you made from those delicious pieces? That will be next week, right????
I can't think of anyone who will do more justice to all of that stash. Enjoy your mom's visit.
Nice! It's always lovely to get new fabric to reinvigorate the stash. I hope you have a lovely visit with your mum.
