…is a day spent with the bestest of girlfriends, one you can chat with, laugh with, share with, cry with…..and that was how I spent today!
I met up with Jenny and we headed off HERE for a day of inspiration and girly banter…..and didn’t we have just the best of fun!?!
We weren’t allowed to take many photos, but we did ask and we were able to take some….
Aren’t they just gorgeous???
The guest for the show was Judy Coates Perez, and although I’m not a real ‘art-quilty’ person……her work is A-MAZING!!!! Photos just don’t do it justice…..
quilted in metallic threads and highlighted in glittered paint, and her painted designs just blew us away…. yes the design is all painted!!!
This little birdy just knocked our socks off too…….the design, again was all painted and then machine quilted…….such an impeccable design……we were looking at all the hidden features within the quilting for ages…..
And despite there not being as many stall holders as last year, they didn’t do too badly out of us…….
My stash included some no 12 perles….. (just a few!!!)
…some fabrics for the stash…..(yes I DO need them!!!)
…and lots of other ‘necessary’ items, including a lace dyeing kit….
Seeing I loved the fabric dyeing so much, Jen and I are both going to have a go at dyeing lace….a different method, but simple just the same….can’t wait to add these to some upcoming designs.
Hope your Friday was a day well spent too!
Sugary hugs :O) xo
