The Sew Weekly Sewing Circle

UK meet (and swap?) - anyone interested?

Some of us have started saying we'd like a UK meet up.... sooooo, who is interested? And where do you live? And are you willing to travel???????

 

I have just looked at the rail map of the uk, we could meet centrally somewhere, sometime this summer? We seem to have people from Edinburgh to Devon....

 

I'll start, I live in Lincolnshire, I can travel within reason (!), but I need some time to organise babysitting ;0) I would LOVE to meet some of the people I have met online and chat about sewing...

 

Who's in?

This is what I got from the Fent Shop Charlotte.  I forgot to tell you, the shop is very easy to find - in the middle of The Vancouver Centre, King's Lynn main shopping centre.  Maybe I'll meet you there sometime!  Regarding the fabric, although I bought this, I've been in two minds about it.  I got it because it was red and white, which is what I was looking for, but it isn't very 50's...more a Mary Quant 60's type motif really.  SO, today, I went and had a look round my home town and found the below, which is perfect!  Couldn't believe it when I saw it, so I'm happy now!
