    The shop you ment is Stegeman Textiel, I've never been there but hope someday I will. Another very nice internetshop is: http://www.lindehofboerderijwinkel.nl/c-1303507/stoffen/ Heel mooie echt Hollandse stoffen!

    This week I posted my first blog giveaway in the Sew, Mama, Sew giveaways (www.sewmamasew.com), which are going on at the same time as the blog hop... so it's been a little stressful! But seeing all the hundreds of different giveaway is always fun, and introducing new people to them is fun too. :)
