Festival of Quilts

Well, it’s ‘that’ time of year again, and no doubt many of you are preparing to travel to Birmingham over the next few days.  This is the 10th Festival of Quilts, and will be wonderful, I’m sure.  How many of you came to our stand five years ago?  If you did, you might like to catch up here….

However, we won’t be there this year.  Last year we had advance warning of a family wedding, so that’s where we will be later this week.  We’ll be meeting up with family that we haven’t seen for some time, so I’m really looking forward to it.  I might make a very quick trip to the Festival on Thursday or Friday, but that isn’t finalised yet.  Mail order will continue to operate as normal as we don’t need to stay away for long.

Enjoy the Festival, and I’m sure that business will return to normal next year……..

 

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!)
