Serendipitous fabric design - Update

Readers paying attention will recall that a company called 'Old Town' offers a print fabric called 'Bermondsey in Bloom' and they have very kindly now sent a bolt of the fabric in the blue colourway (see the options below).

We at the nursery school are about to reciprocate with samples of the following, which were designed by the children, following a trip to the temperate house in Kew Gardens, in association with the fabric designer Hanna Cottrell, to represent a 'River' and 'Rainforest' environment.   See if you can guess which one is which.

Both now hang as curtains in their respective rooms.

'Bermondsey in Bloom' (blue) is about to be made into some lovely bunting and will adorn the School come July 17th. 

It has been a good day!

I love the inter-tubes!

Let joy be unconfined!  Sometimes a plan comes to fruition and so it is with great delight that I can relay what BM has been hatching over the past couple of weeks.

Readers may recall that BM is Chair of Govs at a Nursery & Children's Centre and we are due to have our annual Bermondsey Summer Fete in July.  Sensible Footwear initially drew my attention to Old Town and their gorgeous fabric 'Bermondsey in Bloom' as a result of which and after some enquiries, we are now in a position to display that lovely fabric at the Centre during the Fete; along with the Pearly King & Queen sing-along, Punch & Judy show etc and in return we are sending to Old Town some fabric designed by the children when we re-opened as a Children's Centre in the heart of Bermondsey.  Roll on July 17th!
