Hobbies and Crafts

I went to this yesterday. As usual it was very good but it was surprising how the interests have shifted. Up to last year the emphasis was on papercraft, card making and scrap booking. This year it was definitely on needlework, embroidery, quilting and knitting. I still managed to spend £30 though but have spent more in previous years.

Thanks for those tips

best place to look for craft shows is on www.stallfinder.co.uk

All the craft shows large and small advertise here and the stall holders.

Might make a note of those dates Jan thanks.

Hi I go along to the one held at Bath and West showground. This year 24th/27th April. Always a good day with lots of "what I've always needed" things
to buy ;-)

Shame. I would have thought that there would be some interest on here with the crafters thata re around. I think they run coach trips to this one.. But I do see your problem Jill.

trouble is, I always think I don't want/need anything then see all these lovely things I must have Lol!!!

I am going to Indigo Blu three day workshop in April then Craft Barn in June so no more pennies to spare at the moment xx
