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.
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.
ReplyDeleteGreat stash!!! I too went on Saturday & bought a lot of new things... would have been lovely to meet you ;)
ReplyDeleteNice haul from the NEC.
ReplyDeleteOh what amazing things, great stash buying
ReplyDeleteThose 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!
ReplyDeleteLovely stash and those cakes are certainly amazing!
ReplyDeleteI was there too on Saturday! It was good for stitchers I thought, but it didn't seem very busy so bad for the retailers.
ReplyDeleteWow those cakes! Your new stash looks lovely and I specially like the buttons with crafty sayings.
