.September Cool Shops! SAFFRON CRAIG.

Last, but DEFINITELY not least in the September Cool Shops! round up is Saffron Craig.


If you have been following this blog for awhile, you will most likely be familiar with my love for Saffron Craig fabrics. I love her fresh and contemporary one-of-a-kind designs and vibrant colourways and feel quite honoured to be reviewing her fabric.

I've already started cutting into the stack of Birdtree fabrics that I was sent to review - Saffron Craig's recently released new range - and will be releasing a pattern in the near future featuring these bold designs.


I was so excited when I received the parcel in the mail and, although I loved the fabric on the computer screen, it is divine in real life :)


My absolute favourite Saffron Craig range would have to be Fields. I love the soft colours and floaty designs and have plans for a few more sewing projects using some of these fabrics.


Forest Elementals is another favourite range...The Elk Landscape fabric is shouting out to be made into a skirt. It is just beautiful!


So, if you are on the lookout for new fabric (um...who isn't?!) to add to your stash or use in your next project, head over to Saffron Craig and take your pick! (You can buy from her online store direct and her fabric is avaliable in many fabric stores around Australia and the rest of the world)

GIVEAWAY
Fabric lovers are going to be excited about this giveaway...One lucky person will win a fat quarter bundle of the Bird Tree Range! All you have to do to enter is leave a comment!


Giveaway will close on Saturday 11th September and winner will be drawn randomly. Your comment will be disqualified if you do not leave an email address in your comment or linked to your profile.
