On Friday I had the opportunity to go to the Stitching, Sewing and Hobbycrafts show at Westpoint thanks to 2 pairs of free tickets I won from Sew Scrumptious and Sew Magazine.
I went with my friend Sue and we had a lovely hour and a half browsing the fabric stalls, mostly ignoring the papercraft and knitting ones. I made some great purchases:
From left to right; 1 metre of a cream on cream print Muslin Mates by Moda (I like a tone on tone print and this one will have many uses I’m sure), 1/2 m of Simply Sweet Orange Zig Zag by Lori Whitlock (yellow/orange are lacking in my stash), Geekly Chic lavender glasses by Dorothy Tsang, Gracie Girl numbers in pink by Lori Holt and 2 metres of a text print from the Sunkissed line by Sweetwater.
It’s not often that we find great bargains in the UK; but considering that I had free tickets to the show and no postage costs, all this fabric for less than £25 is brilliant and I’m rather delighted to have new stash additions!
There was something in particular I was looking for but didn’t find so ordered it online when I got home, hopefully I can show you it next week along with the project I need it for.
Check out what others have been stashing and share yours:
Some lovely additions! Shame I couldn’t make it up esp like the orange and pink numbers fabrics.
Nice! Love the white text one!
Nicely stashed, I do love that Sunkissed texty print
Great fabrics! Love text fabrics, have you already got plans for those?
Beautiful! I especially like the orangey zig zag one.
My sis was at the show and said it was great, looks like I should have asked her to do some shopping for me 🙂
