Just got back from the fabric faire. First time I did this. The first moments I was in a sort of panic. Help ! So much fabric, so many things to see, to choose, nobody at my side to help te select things ! So I decided to first have a look around. Then I got "adapted" at the enviroment and started buying.. The first pic are some fabrics, on the right sort of fleece to,make some animals, on the left the 2 ones are plastic ones. Going to use them for a bib for a little child, and the other one to make a cosmetic bag. The secound pic on the top are some fabrics to make the xmas stockings, on the bottom fabric to make a bag for my daughter. The 3rd pic is leather. Gonna make a purse all for myself! The last pic are some assecoires I bought extra. As you can see some ideas to make purses/ bags. This is because Toggie convinced me in trying one, and I did. But it isn't finished yet 'cos I neede the traps for the bag. But I liked it a lot and so want to sew some more. So Toggie if you have a nice (easy) pattern for me for my leather fabric let me know !

Next fabric faire is again in September. For sure I'm gonna go !

Looks like you have had a brilliant time. Its great fun going round something like this with others, that is the fun bit about Cuties meeting at the NEC Birmingham UK sewing events. Now we look forwards to seeing the end results. Good Luck with the leather

You got a good selection of fabrics. Now all you have to do is find someone to go with you to the next one.
