Stitches and Craft show goodies :)

I know the Stitches and Craft Show finished a few days ago, but I finally found time to come and share the goodies I picked up at the show. I went on Friday and Saturday because I could only fit in a few hours each day, but it was well worth it. The Incubator up on level 4 was my favorite part of the show and is the place where I spent most of my money. The indie designers that were exhibiting there were seriously talented. I'm very envious of them and in awe of their talent all at the same time! Here are some shots of what I bought at the show:

I bought a lot of lovely hand screen printed fabric. Can't wait till I get to use them, but I must make sure I use it for something worthy of the fabric!


Here is a better shot of the lovely fabric I picked up:
  • Up the back is fabric from Kristen Doran Design
  • Then on the left is fabric from Pippijoe. I also bought her sling bag pattern, so I will be using this lovely fabric to make that. Very excited!
  • And the remaining three lovely fabrics are from Ink and Spindle. I also picked up one of their tote bag pattern kits (the bottom left of the first picture). Again I am very excited to make it up

And here are all the buttons and hair ties I picked up from Cloth, Please Eloise and Berlinski. A few of the hair ties have already been put to good use!

Oh, before I forget, I also picked up issue 9 and 10 of the Mixtape zine. Will definately subscribe as soon as my bank account recovers!

Hmm, I had an awesome time at the show. Can't wait for next years :)

  2. It definitely was. I was so glad I didn't give myself a small budget to stick to!
