February is one of my favourite months as it means that I get to go fabric shopping! CHSI Stitches is a trade show jam-packed with fabric, wool and other gorgeous craft supplies held annually at the NEC in Birmingham. And last Sunday I got to go, armed with the hugest shopping list after my Facebook followers suggested what fabrics  they would like to see in the future from Lily & Giraffe.

Hello and welcome to my first ever blog post!! 

So, I thought that seeing as this is my first ever blog (and I don't really know what I'm meant to be doing), I'd introduce myself and tell you all a little bit about how Lily & Giraffe first started!

I'm Helen, I'm married with two girls and I love house rabbits (we have 6), tattoos (I have 3 with more planned) and fabric (I have a large hoard!).
