I've just ordered four free fabric samples from made.com and I'm rather excited about them - I hope they arrive really quickly!
I absolutely ADORE freebies like this four free fabric samples one; it helps that I have a bit of a 'thing' for funky fabrics - my chosen free fabric samples are at the funky end of the fabric spectrum too, the ones above are the samples I chose! - and I can already see what I'm going to do with them.
I say I when I really mean my mum - you see, I'm actually not so handy when it comes to all things needle and cotton. Sure, I can repair a fallen hem, I can even knock up a pair of curtains - well it's not hard, they're just huge rectangles, or squares, or fabric with hems and tabs or ruffler tape across the top - but I'm pretty rubbish when it comes to things like cushions that button, or tie, up.
And THAT is what I want to make with my four free fabric samples! I have no idea how big they're going to be, but I can't see them being anything huge like a square meter, so I thought a patchwork cushion with the four free fabric samples as the feature patches would be pretty cool - especially if it looks professionally made because I didn't do it!
You have to create an account to be able to order your four free fabric samples, but that's hardly a hardship is it, and they'll email you a '£10 off your first order' voucher too.
