New Stash :)

This weekend it's my birthday & the celebrations started yesterday with my first gift.  A ticket to The Knitting & Stitching Show at Alexandra Palace from my good friend Franney of Franney Makes.  We met up at London Victoria station & traveled together to Ally Pally, both very excited to see what this years show has in store for us.

I had some birthday money sent to me in advance from my brother & sister-in-law.  They knew I was heading to the show so very kindly allowed me some pennies to shop with while I was there.

We had a fabulous time at the show, it's become an annual pilgrimage for us & we spend the year looking forward to it.  We also met up with two other lovely friends while we were there & catching up at the end of the day in the bar was a welcome rest.

Here's what I came back with this year.

Lisa G Creations - New Stash 2012

A Fire Dragon cross stitch chart
Cherry, whales & spots FQ's
Sew Stitchy charm pack
1 metre each of pussy cat fabric, pink with pretty birds & Disney Cars fabric
Spotty fabric in pink n cream & brown n cream

Not a bad haul of new goodies, came away with lots on a wish list & ideas galore of things to make.  Lets hope it's not too long before I can show you something made out of these lovelies.

Happy stitching :)

    Glad you had a good time. Please let me know if you find a good match in green solid for the whales. I've got a project planned but my green isn't right :(
