Here we all are at the NEC in Birmingham yesterday. (Not sure what the joke was!)



Left to right, gillemmerson, me, rosakent, newrecruit and, in front eggyannie.


New recruit is my big sister Pat who is learning to use our late sister's embroidery machine - and who bought lots of fabric at the show!
PS Thanks to Annie's daughter for taking the pictures.

I love the pictures and to see you again in those lovely dresses,
Sue and Gil! You are looking awesome and so do the other ladies.
I also wonder, Sue, whether you have done this colourful jacket
yourself - so amazing! Have a nice weekend - Maria

OH Sue, I wish I could have been there with you too! There is nothing like a day with girlfriends! Do you all have those British accents? You look like such a friendly group! I would have worn my best jeans and my heather plum colored cotton sweater and I know I would have spent too much on fabric. Thanks for sharing your pictures!

Great shot of you ladies. Gill, did you make that beautiful black jacket? Love yours too Sue and I'm so glad that your sister got to buy lots of fabric. Did Rosa and Annie buy things too, I can't see much in their hands? Love Chris

hightechgrammy by hightechgrammy 21 Mar 2014

It was a really good day out, Gill didn't want anything but by the end of the day she was loaded down with goodies, my bags are hidden by Ann but I got a new medium sized frame from the Brother stand and lots of fabric and wool. Brilliant day, now I'm resting with my feet up and knitting needles clicking. Hugs Jo

What is the price for a yard of nice quilting cotton?

rosakent by rosakent 21 Mar 2014

I paid £8 a metre, there was some on offer for half that, and super quality for £12 plus. A fabricaholics idea of heaven!
