Sunday Lovin’…. hot, hot hot!!

summer things loving hot weather

The weather is going to be super hot in the UK in the next few days. Those of you from overseas may not find it too bad, but we don’t really have air con here, and aren’t really used to the heat!

Luckily, I live by the sea so it’s nice to paddle in the waves by the beach as a means of cooling down. But sometimes that just isn’t enough! Today it wasn’t super hot here, but everyone still wanted to cool down!

Sunday Lovin’ – My Silhouette Cameo picks

I love my Silhouette Cameo, and think that the Silhouette Store is pretty darned awesome! I was looking through the newest designs (I usually do this every week) and thought I’d share some of my current favourites on my ‘wish list’ with you!

Silhouette have just released a fabric cutting blade*, which I cannot wait to get – I hope that it’ll help me to get more into sewing by pre-cutting the fabric and then all I will need to do is learn how to use my sewing machine! I love the fox and owl sewing patterns 🙂

You can download some svg, gsd and dxf files for free from Daniela Angelova’s blog, but she also has some awesome files in the Silhouette Store, my favourites are:

I love some of the KI Memories designs, my favourite of theirs right now include:

Retro clocks

Citrus slice

Other favourites include the hibiscus card by Loni Stevens, and I cannot leave out this Union flag bunting by Elizabeth Mayne… come on Team GB!!

 

Do you have a Silhouette cutting machine*? What are your favourite cutting files for it?
