So it wasn't long before Carlotta Camry arrived...DH said this new car was 'racier' than the previous car, so deserved what he considered a 'racier' name! Lol.
Now at the same time I did a bit of shopping...online from Ava and Neve, a shop at North Lakes specialising in Liberty fabrics.
A more modest purchase compared to DH perhaps but there is a link...however tenuous :-)
I will be cutting some hexagons from these fabrics for a couple of upcoming projects and when we took delivery of 'Carlotta', DH didn't notice...but I did!! Look at the upholstery fabric of the seats...hexies!

Lol!!! Only a patchworker would notice that!!
Charlotte is lovely especially with those hexie seats....
Your Liberty fabrics are delicious too.
Win-win I'd say !! Enjoy the new car and the new fabric. xox
Oh yes, I love the new car and name - enjoy!
Those hexies were definitely a 'sign' that that car was meant to belong with you both eh ;D)
Love the smart new car.
Those Liberty prints are gorgeous. I must check out that store.
nice car. Love those seat covers. Hugs,xx
Great car Maria, you won't know yourself..... covering up those hexies my goodness.
Very racy new car!! And funny that you nticed the hexies - I'm not sure I would've, but then, I'm not a patchworker/quilter/sewer.
She is a beauty
Hello Maria,
Oh I love the idea of calling your car a name, Carlotta, you won't forget that one. Have fun with those lovely Liberty fabrics.
Happy days.
Bev.
How appropriate and congrats on the new car. I love naming a car. My number plate is FMO and my friends christened it For Maureen Only....ummm....and I just adore those liberty fabrics
Fairs Fair I think - I suspect that shop is going to be very tempting for you...
Hope you get to go "racing" in Carlotta sometimes...
Love the hexie seats! And those beautiful fabrics.
Is the goal to replace the seat covers of your car with the other fabric? I've never done something like this before. Up till now I've always just bought seat covers for my cars. This way sounds like a lot more fun and you can make it look however you want it.
