Welcome

As the song from Gilmore Girls says “So welcome to my little corner of the world”. It’s all about me and my crafting – focusing around my love for stitching and sewing along with anything else that catches my eye. So welcome, grab a coffee and happy reading.

Stash shopping at the NEC

Hey folks, 

Just a quick post about my day out at the Stitching and hobbycrafts show at the NEC yesterday. I went with my friends Clare and Ria. 

We saw some amazing cakes...




Saw costume displays from the film The Kings Speech



And a promotional piece from Game of Thrones. 


And brought STASH...


Paper bags for DD's birthday and jewellery elastic. Lots of buttons, various pieces of fabric (including a grab bag of evenweave and linen offcuts) and threads. 



Buttons and beads. 


Liberty fabric for my quilt, felt and threads.


And a bent creek pattern. I seem to have a thing for alphabet patterns at the moment. 

I had a fab day. Best I start saving for November! 

See you Tuesday for Theme-Tas-Stitch.

  1. I love going to craft shows but there is only one in my region, always in May. And like you I never come back home without some new stash. You seem to have had a great time.

  4. Those cakes are amazing! Was there much cross stitch there? I haven't been to a show since before the boys were born. I went to Olympia a couple of times, it was awesome back then!

  6. I was there too on Saturday! It was good for stitchers I thought, but it didn't seem very busy so bad for the retailers.
