Stitched Textiles Exhibition

I’m looking forward to next week.  On Thursday and Friday we will be at the Stitched Textiles Exhibition at Eastleigh.  It was good last year, but I gather that it is going to be bigger this year.  If you are in the area do take a look.

Eastleigh College,   Desborough Campus,   Desborough Road,   Eastleigh,   Hampshire,  SO50 5NH

Thursday 6pm – 8.30pm

Friday 10am – 3pm

Parking isn’t the easiest, although free.  We’ve had dents in the car, so be warned….  However, the standard is good and I think you’ll enjoy it.  If I have permission I’ll post some pictures for those of you that can’t get there.

A belated catch-up

I completely forgot to tell you that I wrote a little about our weekend here and here.  I’m compiling a post about a Private View that we went to this week, so I thought I’d just drop this one in to let you know that I haven’t forgotten you all.  The Exhibition relates to these.

More to come.

Incidently, I recently came across this newish site.  If you want to advertise an exhibition she will willingly add the details – and that applies to anywhere in the world.  I’ve started following, and already found one that I wanted to attend.  (Make a note of the address, but note the ‘d8’!  If you include ‘date’ in the URL you might go to the wrong site!)

An update – and a secret glimpse

This is a quick update on my last post about Quilts and Roses.  I’ve been told that Saturday opening is actually 10.30am for the Quilt Show, so you can come early and beat the crowds.  The Rose Show doesn’t open until 12.30 as there is judging before that.  The food at Squires is usually lovely , so you can have a coffee or lunch while you wait for the second part to start.

We are all set up now, and looking forward to a busy couple of days.  There was still a lot to do when we left, however, and the organisers were rushing hither and thither.  Can you keep a secret?  Here’s a quick glimpse, taken just as we were leaving

Hope to see you there either tomorrow or Sunday, once again it starts at 10.30am.
