Christmas Indulgence 1
We asked some of our fabulous designers to tell us:
For her background she would use: "Colourshott white sand because it’s the perfect background colour - soft and warm - and it lets the other colours shine."
And we hope that she finds under her Christmas tree, "A rotating cutting mat - something I’ve never treated myself to but perfect for trimming small blocks!"
- which colour from Oakshott Fabrics they would choose as the background to a handmade Christmas card;
- and what sewing tool they would like to find under their Christmas tree.
