Antarctica is looking good

I made a start on my next commission today. This will be a bed quilt for a little boy, whose room will have a rocket theme. His mum and I were thinking alike when we agreed on the Prints Charming Two Young Street range, though it took a bit of hunting to get all the fabric.
Because it has such a lovely soft feel, we decided to use only Prints Charming fabrics, so added in a few coordinates from the range, and I found these blue spokes, and even some red teardrops from their Follow Your Imagination range, which we're hoping to incorporate.
It's still hideously hot, but apparently not too hot for tutus! This is how we found a very tired James late this afternoon!
I've been seriously thinking about relocating to Antarctica. But will the fabric shops ship there? And at what cost?!

    I think the post to the Antartic would be slow but you could just take your mammoth stash with you and use that! LOL Or the offer of posting to Perth still stands! :)

    Looking good Emma! I think the spokes work well together. I hope it cools off down there for you soon.

    No need to go to Antarctica - come to the UK, we have plenty of cold weather here right now!

    Lovely lovely fabrics.
