...worn out but happy!

Just got back from Festival of Quilts...

...completely worn out...

...but very, very happy!

I managed to meet up with many old friends...

...like Jackie, who I've known online for ages but never met "in the flesh"...

...and make some new ones too. :-)

Here are a delightful couple from "Patch Addict" in Lorient (Britanny)

...who sell the most delicious batiks!







At the beginning of the show SHE was wearing the apron...

...and HE was wearing the shirt.

I made a suggestion....

...and when I passed their stand on the way to my workshop on Sunday.....

...garments were reversed!!

He wasn't a bit phased either...bless 'im :-)))

As usual, there were some beautiful quilts, and plenty of eye candy in the shopping area...

...although I DO believe that stand numbers are diminishing.

Lots of folk going by but not spending money is causing stand holders to re-think whether they book again it seems.

Hmmmmmm.....................


Anyways, the van has been emptied but will be re-filled in the morning.

More workshops beckon.....

I'll try to keep up with blog posts, but they may be a tad sporadic for a while.
