A Treat from Black Sheep Wools (& Fabrics)

I am so thrilled that I won the Sewing Bee at Black Sheep Wools (& Fabrics) especially as everyone else's project was good enough to win, but this time (I who never usually wins anything) was amazingly fortunate to be the lucky one and here is the generous prize I received. 

Thanks so much to Black Sheep for such a lovely parcel of goodies which will be so well used, and thanks to to all the kind people who voted for the bag I made at the Bee. The pattern will soon be available on Black Sheep's website if anyone fancies making one and there's a wide range of fabulous quality fabrics in store in all the bright colours I used in my bag. 

Here is the wonderful Coats bag of treasure I was given...
The purple fabric is a bolt of almost 7 metres (by FreeSpirit) and Lesley didn't  even know that it's my favourite colour! 
Wow! plenty there to make sashes, binding and back a quilt.
That's an Amy Butler jellyroll on the left too....
Lesley hands me the super bagful of goodies in the fabric department....
There were lots of sewing notions, .... 
  also a £15 gift card and I didn't take long to spend it on the turquoise fabrics which were perfect for a project I intend to make.
I'll come down to earth now and make plans to use it all.
