Craft Show
Thanks to David Reidy over at the Sticks and String podcast, I scored a pair of complimentary tickets to the Stitches and Craft show. Ailsa and I went along on Friday, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
I am very proud to say that I didn't purchase any yarn. None, not an iota.
The same cannot be said for fabric.
There are many, many knitting pouches in my future. Watch this space!

Posted by: kylie at August 23, 2009 07:58 AMgreat win and yes I had a bit of trouble at the fabric ailse at the show - on level 4 that is
Posted by: missfee at August 23, 2009 08:24 AMOh how exciting!!! I recognise some too!! Happy sewing.
Posted by: 2paw at August 23, 2009 12:49 PMWow, it didn't look like that much when you were carrying it!
I love it all though. My fave is the bold geometric one with the dots on it. And the butterfly toile.
I don't recognise any of them of course, I know nothing about the heirachy of sewing fabric.

I am just giving a shout out to everyone who sews/quilts if they have any left over navy blue fabric, I am taking donations so I can sew them into bags for the Dapto Cub Scouts.
