Update on a covet

So while I was in the shop this weekend I got chance to fondle and drool over the beautiful Glimma range that Annie now has in stock. Not only are there the scrumptious quilting cottons I mentioned here, but there are 4 gorgeous solids in lovely dusty colours, a couple of spotty linens, and some canvas - just perfect for THE latest bag pattern, the Aeroplane.

I was fairly taken with the colous on the little iPad screen, but in the flesh they are something else - the flannel grey has a hint of heather to it, while the slate is a rich intense stormy grey.  

So get yourself over to Annie's, either virtually here or literally over in West Hampstead, and get it while it's hot.  Just please remember to leave enough of the dandelion for me and my aeroplane.

The 6th, and this week's final, covet of the week

So, all this week, in celebration of Annie's new weekday opening hours at the wonder that is The Village Haberdashery, we've had a daily, misnomered, Covet of the Week. Today being Friday, and the last weekday, this is the last in the mini series, but the question is have I saved the best till last??

 With her ranges Echo and Bella, Lotta Jansdotter brought us clean, Scandinavian design, and Glimma carries that theme on.  I'm loving this range, and having resisted the previous two, I suspect this one will see me parting with more hard-earned cash, as I identify that gap in the stash that only Glimma could fill.

The muted colours and simple designs are gorgeous, and I can't wait to see it in the thread, as it were.

Now, after all that coveting I'm off to Wales for a soul-cleansing weekend with beloved partner's family.
