Soon to be launched: Lucy Loves… Cushion Covers

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

We are in a manufacturing mode at the moment. I am sewing up beautiful cushion covers in some of our vintage material.

They’ll be on sale soon, so make sure you stop by again!! As they are made using vintage material you have one chance to buy that design you fall in love with. A great way to be individual in your home.

Excited?

Next Fair… (updated)

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

Update: I’m afraid we have had to cancel our place at this fair due to a personal event. We appologise to our clients. We will however be at The Shire Hall, Chelmsford on the 30th January. Hope to see you there instead! – Lucy x

…We have just booked in for our next fair. This isn’t a Vintage fair like our one in Islington. It’s a CRAFT FAIR and it will be at The Brentwood Centre on the 27th AND 28th February 2010.

Not sure how many of us are thinking past Christmas Day yet… but if you have next years diary’s ready – please pop it in!! We would love to see you!

Hope you are all having lovely weeks. It’s frosty here this morning!

Women’s Institute – Fantastic News!!

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

Hello everyone!! Well I am writing to you all using very tired hands.. we have arrived home from our first every Fair in London’s Islington. A fantastic and successful day for us here at Lucy Loves Fabric. Lots of things have been removed from the website that were sold in high volume, buttons and lace being favourites. We do however still have some fantastic pieces in stock that will be going on the website ASAP.

BUT my friends… this isn’t what I have popped by to chat to you all about. All photos and details of the fair will be talked about tomorrow.

I have news that I just couldn’t wait to share before then. Some of you are aware that the week before last I had an audition with the prestigious – Women’s Institute (and very lovely ladies they were too). We auditioned for a place on the ‘panel of speakers’ list within the Institute, where institutes around the East London and Essex area can call on us to come along and talk to them for around half an hour, do a bit of a presentation. Teach them, learn from them – generally all enjoy ourselves together.

I was thrilled after a rather daunting talk to 60 wonderful ladies to find out on Saturday that I had passed my audition and will take my place on the panel.

This is a great honour for Lucy Loves Fabric and a great achievement for myself. I thank you – Ladies of the W.I. :) I look forward to seeing you again soon..

Goodnight everyone, I hope you all had fantastic weekends.

A new fabric available

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

Hi Everyone

We have another fabric available by the talented Erin McMorris. It is from the Wildwood collection and it’s Pressed Leaves in Green. Check it out…

EM10Green

Nice huh… we ordered it a while ago from Rowan. But it’s only just come into stock, so it’s clearly been popular.

It has a wonderful retro feel… teamed with another of Erin’s fabrics like the below would be a fab combo…

EM19Olive

EM10Green

What do you think??? Like them together??? We do… I think they would look fab for interiors. Very Autumnal too.

Check both pieces out here…

And don’t forget, if you want us to run something up for you – just let us know.
