<<<------- New Stash ! Lovely fabrics, beads, button, trim and patterns and a couple of needed DMC's. I also have a mystery purchase to show at a later date once I have found something required to complete it!
The day started with a class on foundation piecing. Our Teacher was Carol from Just Quilting and fortunately for us there were only 3 people booked in. Our project was a heart ~ and the plan was to finish all the piecing during the class, which we all did, then embellish and finish later. Our kit included a pre-made backing and Carol gave tips on embellishments and finishing. I will post pictures once I have completed mine. I love to learn new techniques so it was great to remove some of the mystery behind this one.
We met lots of people, Tuesday Stitching Girls, lovely stall holders ~ some we know from other shows and some new, EG members, Wednesday Quilt Group members and old painting buddies ~ Hi Sheila!
We were there when they rang the bell ~ almost had to be put out! All in all a very tiring but thoroughly enjoyable day.
Hairdresser for me today, visits to make tomorrow to our Mums for Mothers Day, and miscellaneous household chores are what the weekend holds in store. Hopefully I can fit in some stitching too.
Have a good one.
