Since I discovered Fantazia Fabricland, no trip to the Gold Coast is complete without a detour to South Tweed. And so it was that last Monday, my friend Mary and I just happened to be in the vicinity of this fabrics/haberdashery warehouse...and we went in for a look around... :-)
We went into the doorway on the left as I wanted to look at the patchwork fabrics...in particular I wanted to see what fabric packs they had...some of these coordinated fabrics packs made wonderful Christmas gifts last year...
And I was not disappointed by the range this time either...the hardest part was not picking up everyone I liked! lol
Then I noticed a lovely striped fabric which I thought could be handy for bindings...
Then my friend and I went into the other section of Fantazia as she was just checking out dressmaking fabrics...which she wasn't going to buy...but did! lol
And no wonder...look at just a small section that a customer has to choose from...
In this section I fell in love with some seersucker tablecloth fabric ...so I bought some...
The back...

| I bought enough to make a tablecloth to cover our big table on the side veranda. |
While I was waiting in the queue I noticed these...
So one came home with me...

What a wonderful shop Maria,and your giveaway parcel looks wonderful,thankyou for hosting this giveaway.xx
What a lovely give a way.
I haven't seen seersucker for many years and certainly nothing that bright. It would brighten up any room.
I don't sew Maria, but I do admire those who can! cheers Wendy
Now that definitely looks like somewhere to put on the list to visit if I ever get back to that part of the country!
I love going there too - but too many temptations.
Lovely of you to have a giveaway and I have just the project for those brights!!
(fingers are now crossed)
I haven't been there for a couple of years (not sure if I can remember how to get there anymore) but it looks much 'tidier' than when I was there last! Great fabrics!

Such bright colors - would be great for a child's quilt. :)
It's always hard to walk out of Fantazia without a purchase or two. It's my "local", but you found some things I've not noticed in there Maria...mind you, mine are usually flying visits on the way to somewhere else. A bright and generous giveaway too.
Wow such beautiful bright colours. What a greqt giveaway
Hi Maria! I would think I'd gone to Heaven in that place. It reminds me of Mary Jo's here in North Caroline - I so want to go up there for my birthday in March. It's so nice of you to have this Give-a-way!
Looks like a great place to shop. Thanks for this great giveaway.
