Was a different experience for me this year! The first hour I missed the buzz of having a stand but I reminded myself I went in the capacity of a shopper. Magazines, thread, crystals, paper and fabric were my purchases.
From a professional view point I wanted to see how my choice of colours fared - which fabrics I could combine with my designs. It seemed the my new fabrics worked in with many other designers’ collections. PHEW.
Kathryn and I introduced ourselves to stall holders said our hellos. From Hobart to Brisbane quilting shops were there, each shop with inspired quilts bags and crafts. As I am in my own world most of the year I was apprehensive to see whom the Field range and the Owl range resonated with, though I needed not be people are so encouraging. I loved meeting the country quilt shops being from a town of 500 I related. Oh those sweet men helping out there wives dreaming of their tractors - personality plus is why she brought you. I had many a good chat and experienced heart felt happiness.
As we walked to central station to catch the train to the ferry I felt elated. I have never seen the show like I did this time. What did you think?
