Liberty fabrics, cream teas, what a fantastic day!!

[@debbiedouglass1478]

Oh my, what gorgeous fabrics!! I would be so thrilled to go to a special sale like that! You got some wonderful pieces!!

[@24hrpa]

So lovely of you to take us with you to the sale. I don't have anything like that here where I live in Australia and so have to go either to mainstream stores or buy online. I don't really like to buy online much, as I am a tactile person and like to feel the fabric. You certainly bought a beautiful selection and I'm happy for you. Enjoy. 😊❤

[@karentoynton8948]

Wow I would have been in heaven in that sale , the £1 pieces would have been lovely for me as I like doing patch work type things or lots of pieces pit together. The ags you showed us were fantastic also. Feel very jealous hehe. No getting bored like you love looking at the pieces .

[@jayneterry8701]

I hadn't heard of Alice Caroline before today. Who doesn't love pouring over fabrics! ❤ Loved all your purchases. Rachel you show them up close and clearly thank you. 💖👍🇨🇦

[@CherryBelle-sh2jx]

What a fabulous haul, thanks for sharing xx

[@barbarawilliams8523]

You are so very lucky to live where you can get bargains like that. Everything is so gorgeous. Here in the states where I live liberty lawn is $35 a yard. I have not seen anyone have small pieces to choose from. It has been so delightful watching your video. You are such a sweet person. I only found you today, but I will be watching your videos from now on.

[@lafranglaise3399]

Thanks for sharing your Liberty sale adventure. You can never buy (or even window shop) enough beautiful fabric 😉 I went to the Handy crafts show in Montpellier on Friday I told you about & was delighted to see that there were many fabric stalls. My favourite stalls were a British lady selling Liberty fabric & a Spanish designer from Barcelona who had some fantastic organic cotton prints that go perfectly with Liberty stuff. I was able to buy enough to make a quilt for our toddler grand daughter. 😘

[@stitchwithrachel]

Aww what a wonderful quilt that will make ❤️

[@patriciadavidson3328]

Really enjoyed seeing the countryside…, and loved the shop! I agree I also like to buy a variety of smaller cuts!!! All beautiful!❤

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thank you, the countryside was beautiful wasn't it! X

[@annrunacres3982]

Thanks for taking us to the sale. You must be like me…..playing with fabric is part of the fun isn’t it?

[@SamanthaRice-d4h]

Well I’ve now ordered some liberty fabric from Etsy - so excited for it to arrive.

[@MultiRusty50]

Thank you. Really enjoyed watching all the different fabrics. Gorgeous

[@annrunacres3982]

I love making landscape wall hangings, and some of your packs had some ideal pieces for that.

[@janetkeen8065]

My favorite are the one lb scraps ! I love florals and the color pink! I’m so jealous! ♥️✂️🛍️

[@lorraineholden1983]

Aww thank you Rachel I really enjoyed looking at your Liberty fabric can’t wait to see the quilt you are going to make with them ❤

[@brit1945]

I’m so happy that you and your sister got to go on a fun day! I wish I could have joined you for shopping and tea! What a delightful time ❤❤❤

[@peterlilley6836]

I love dress making but it’s you who brought me to the light side I’m making a brick quilt love teresa

[@moniperdue8858]

You have great taste in fabric..Love looking at your scraps..Thanks for showing

[@shinkak0]

It's so interesting to see a haul like this, and see what piques your interest in terms of colors and patterns. I'm definitely more into blues and purples myself, but I love how you point out the nice little details in prints and colors I might have overlooked. Your enthusiasm is infectious!

[@sarahinengland7603]

Hello, I would have thought that been one of four sisters that at least one of them would have a passion for sewing too, sadly not 😮 only myself . My daughter (25) does so you have inspired me to have a crafternoon with her 😊xx

[@kimgrowden6415]

Wow this is a fabulous haul

[@NancyBell-c5y]

It’s so nice to see the liberty fabric so up close! Thank you!

[@stitchwithrachel]

You are so welcome!

[@tristadav]

It's very enjoyable to get a peak at your new treasures! I'm also looking forward to the inspiration of what you will make!

[@lynnecollins3284]

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thank you! 😊

[@peterlilley6836]

I’m going ooooo. Rrrr listening with my earbuds in I’m excited too I ger told to shhhh not fair luv teresa

[@pattiecoxey]

Love all that Liberty. I'm in the USA and almost impossible to find here especially in a quilt shop. I do have a box full of it but had to get it from Liberty of London. Luckily I got it before prices went up after Covid. Enjoy!

[@beverlyperry5343]

Nice video for the rainy Sunday we are having here in the US. Thank you for sharing you experience😊

[@PeaChips]

I loved seeing what you bought at the sale.❤ what a treat. I look forward to seeing you wearing the dress your sister is going to make for you, in one of your videos. ❤

[@stitchwithrachel]

I definitely will!

[@Auntie7024]

Beautiful fabrics. What a nice shopping trip. Love them all. ❤😊

[@Sewmena918]

What a wonderful day! I live in the US, but I always look for books set in the Cotswolds. Your fabric is beautiful. I get overwhelmed trying to choose, so I would definitely go for the pre-made bags.

[@angelparker5652]

Thank you for sharing! Beautiful fabrics!

[@maryt2887]

Wish I could flip through those fabrics! They are luscious!

[@MultiRusty50]

Fabulous prints

[@theresaschimelpfening4645]

Beautiful! Thanks for taking us along we you!

[@stitchwithrachel]

Any time!

[@chippewagirl7299]

Oh my would I love to tag along with you and your sister. What beautiful fabrics you purchased. My favorite color ways are along the peachy, orange melon etc. Lovely shops you have.

[@dollysadlak5242]

I love Liberty fabrics. I'm so jealous of the bargins you found🤭

[@nancysharon931]

Delightful! What a wonderful shopping trip! ❤

[@shellilayman1943]

Oh girl!!! I am SO jealous of your opportunity to purchase so many beautiful Liberty prints at such a great value!!! I would have gone absolutely crazy in a sale like that so I guess it’s a good thing I don’t live near you 😂😂😂. Thanks for sharing your beautiful finds with us. You picked some really gorgeous prints! 😍😍😍😍

[@stitchwithrachel]

It was hard to control myself!! 🤣

[@sallysmith6543]

Love these fabrics 😍. I’m sitting doing my Liberty epp quilt and wishing I could have gone with you! Trying not to buy too much this year and use what I have but it’s always tempting.

[@stitchwithrachel]

I told myself the same thing.. its not going well! lol... happy stitching and thank you for watching xx

[@sandycervenak9906]

Thank you so much for sharing your Liberty goodies with us. I absolutely love their fabrics.❤I’m going to England in September,can’t wait and hopefully will be able to purchase some of that gorgeous fabric. 😊

[@helsynorfolk]

Haha, I loved your excitement beforehand! I’m not surprised, looking at all those goodies. Is saw the sale advertised and am gutted I live too far away!

[@SewWhittle]

Wow, what a great sale. Wish we had something like that in my area.

[@heatherinoklahoma]

What lovely fabrics! ❤❤❤

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thank you! 😊

[@marionmathews9852]

It was very exciting to see your purchases…….you have picked up some incredible prints. I must look out for bargains like this at the next quilt show that I’m going to. I’ve also bought the fpp mini houses pattern since watching you do yours. I’m excited to start it, but really need to finish off some current projects.

[@HeatherEK]

Wow, what a great selection of fabrics and such a fun sale. It is difficult to find a nice selection of Liberty in the US where I live so my collection remains small but I love seeing such a variety of prints.

[@stitchwithrachel]

It was so much fun, yeah alot of people have told me that.. such a shame! Xx

[@kellyhale2778]

The fabric's are beautiful!

[@jenniferayim889]

Lovely Rachel your fabric your video love it.

[@judyzeigler3980]

You did good with the fabrics❤ very nice.

[@winoakey2112]

Fabulous fabrics Rachel.

[@cathgllt4255]

These fabrics looks great

[@stephaniemilano3525]

Wow Rachel you scored big. Do you know how often they have the sales, I would love to go to one next time I am home in UK?

[@jackiebeck1427]

I love the fabrics you have chosen. I am from the states and I was first introduced to Liberty fabrics 2 years ago when my husband and I were in Europe on our first Viking River cruise. I purchased one meter of two different fabrics from two different countries with the thought of making a quilt from my travels. However, I am not sure when we will get to visit Europe again. It would be fabulous to be able to purchase Liberty scraps and pieces from the shop where you purchased your fabrics. Do you know if that shop would ship to the states? Please post the shop’s contact information. I would also like to know the best place in the states to find Liberty fabric. Thanks so much! Love your channel, Rachel!

[@stitchwithrachel]

That would be lovely to make a quilt from those fabrics. The company who held the sale is called Alice Caroline and they do ship internationally x

[@bionance]

what a treat of a day out! thanks much for the show and tell - i don't think any of us watching get tired of seeing those amazing colors and pattern combinations - sheer art! well i finally subscribed - yay! - thanks again for getting me hooked...away from knitting... quick question i don't think i've heard you mention: do you pre-wash your fabrics? here in utah, a friend of mine made a quilt to enter into our state fair, and the rules stated that you had to use unwashed fabrics only for quilt entries, which i found odd? anyway, i pre-wash. and iron after that. curious what you suggest. also - you've probably showed this - but how do you store these orts and gubbins of fabric? i'm fairly new to stashing fabrics but it seems like i'd want to do it by type? like i have some flannels, which i don't think i want to store with quilting cottons, and then a bunch of linen, etc. i need a system - help!

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thank you for subscribing! I don't prewash my fabrics for quilts but I would for dress making as size matters in clothes but not as much quilting. If there is any shrinkage, then it will only create a nice wrinkled effect that I love in quilts. I usually buy small cuts of fabric so I imagine they would fray alot while washing. For storing small cuts of fabric and projects, I put them in fancy gift boxes as they look nice and decorative. For fat quarters and yardage, I use my under bed drawers.

[@victoriaspencer725]

whenever I watch one of your haul videos for some reason I always find myself wanting to go fabric shopping 🤭

[@stitchwithrachel]

Ooops! 🤣

[@jacquelinestrand6283]

You got some lovely fabrics. I love to sew dresses for myself but would never use liberty because of how expensive it would be. (I live in U.S.). I would shop like you do if I were to go to these liberty sales. I can't just settle on just one or two prints. I like to use them for small projects.❤️

[@dot7146]

So pretty! ❤

[@karonwostenholme6533]

❤❤❤

[@kellyvogliqi7621]

Great selection of fabrics, so much potential for little projects . How did I miss this sale, 😢 where did you hear about it?

[@stitchwithrachel]

Oh nooo!! I saw it in Instagram, it was their first sale but I think they'll have more

[@marieandree6077]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lalimarinas4910]

Esas telas se tienen que mojar? Gracias

[@claudiaross239]

I loved the same fabrics you did. Do you think that the savings are worth the airfare from Canada 😂😂

[@stitchwithrachel]

🤣🤣 perhaps not, but you'd have a fun time

[@juliegoodwin5366]

Hi Rachel, how did you hear about the AC sale? Was it from her website?

[@stitchwithrachel]

I think I saw it on her Instagram, if you aren't in the Midlands. She is actually going on "tour" around the country with a sales van 💖

[@Downatthebeach]

how do you get the sample stickers off without damaging the fabric, or do you just cut them away?

[@stitchwithrachel]

I have mixed experiences with it, sometimes you can gently pull the sticker and it comes off no problem, other times I rips and doesn't come off.

[@Downatthebeach]

@@stitchwithrachel thank you
