Thursday to Saturday was heaving and Sunday was a bit like a deflated balloon, but I had such a good time. I met so many of you for the first time Trudi, Anna, Laura, Ali, Katy, Laura, Judith, to name but a few - really there are so many of you that I can now put faces to names and addresses.
A special mention to Florence who put me into such a spin of excitement that I kissed her. I'm really sorry about that Florence - It was Sunday and I was feeling a bit emotional. The rest of you got off lightly with a regular handshake or a polite and friendly wave.
Anyhow I am now pooped but will leave you with a couple of pics of my bijoux stand... honestly the smallest space that the Festival of Quilts people will let you have.

The stand is gorgeous! I so wish I could've been there in person to see it =D
ReplyDeleteThe best things come in small packages... or so they say ;-)
ReplyDeletesmall but perfectly formed! It was lovely to meet you :-D
ReplyDeletelike Laura Jane said! glad it all went great! x
ReplyDeleteWho would have known that you had room for a pet person in there too?! Such a delightful haven of loveliness. It was a delight to meet you and to come away with yummy cross-hatch fabrics too!
ReplyDeleteIt was great to meet you Alice. I still haven't got a proper plan for the FQs I bought but I'm enjoying unfolding, looking at and folding them again all the same!
ReplyDeleteIt was lovely to meet you and I now follow you everywhere :-)
ReplyDeleteThe stand may have been small but it was jam packed with the best stuff! It was lovely to meet you in person.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great little stall, and I was lucky enough to be your second customer on the first day, whilst the rest of the visitors were still making their way back through the stalls, so I had it virtually all to myself. It was great, as it meant i could really take a look at your beautiful fabrics, when i passed by later you were so STACKED with customers, it scared me!! I haven't gotten round to cutting any of them up yet, i'm still stroking them and trying to decide which of my project ideas to use them in. I will definitely be ordering online again, when my self imposed fabric buying ban is over!! Angela
ReplyDeleteThank goodness I visited on Sunday - I would have been so offended not to have come away with a kiss!
ReplyDeleteYour stand looked beautiful and it was so lovely to meet you! x
Really glad you had a good time and that it went well for you. Wish I could have met you too (sob!)..
ReplyDeleteDidn't get a kiss but did get some lovely fabric thank you! It might have been small but the fabric you brought was beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGood things come in small packages! The stand looks lovely, I do hope it was a successful weekend for you. I really wish I could have come to see you. Next year I am going to refuse to discuss any holiday plans with the family until I've reserved a day to come up to the NEC!
ReplyDeleteIt might have been the smallest stand, but it was my second day and the first where it went realy wrong;-), with me buying the whole flea market fan;y FQ-bundle and some sketch fabrics too.
