Books Galore!

When I was home for Christmas, I was happily showing my sister L my new Japanese pattern book...remember this one I got from M is for Make.

'Oh... they are so lovely'

.....and so when she went home, so did my book.

But then my other sister B, popped up and said that you could buy some in English at Dymocks in town.  So off I went to see if there were any in stock.

And look what I found.....

(Oh that's another book in the background that my sister M gave to me and some fabric I found in a  market.)

All these patterns are in english this time and go up to a size 16 for us bigger busted gals out there.  Can't wait to try some out.

I've also ordered another copy of my first book that I bought at M is for Make again.  I couldn't resist!

 

I really must get cracking on these.   I have enough patterns for a whole new wardrobe!

My New Pattern Book

I have been wanting to buy one of these sewing pattern books (Oh and a few bits of fabric for my stash.) for a long time from M is for Make.

I just couldn't decide which book to buy.

Ok, I don't know how to read Japanese but the pictures are so pretty.

The book has come with some instructions from Kate but there are step by step pictures in each step to sew the pattern together.

Is anyone else thinking of the movie 'The Ring'....

But such great patterns. All 20 of them. 

I think my sisters will want to get their hands on this when I venture home.

My blogging will now be limited from now until the beginning of the New Year. 

It's beginning to get busy with events and dinners and a birthday thrown in there for a bit more celebrating.

I am trying to get a bit of sewing in as well but I think I might be being a bit too optimistic.

Enjoy your week!
