Creative Festival purchases

The Creative Festival is being held this weekend in Toronto, so of course, I just had to go on the first day. Check out my buys! The fat quarter bundle in the front of the picture is Kaffe Fasset's fall 2012 collection- it just jumped into my bag- after I paid for it of course. I could have spent so much more money but had to put an elastic band on my wallet, LOL. Oh the inspiration! I bought a wool applique kit to try out the technique too, never done that kind of handwork before. I replaced my Gingher thread snips that dissappeared somewhere, a few patterns, a Fons and Porter design wall, 2 Rapid Fire rulers, a small tumbler die for my GO, 2 other interesting fat quarter bundles and some odds and ends too. Had a great day, and my DH was glad that I spent some money on myself. Nice man!

looks like you got some cool stuff. My husband bought me those same snips at the show i went to on thursday, and he thought of it all by himself, just because he heard me use the word snips a couple of days before. How happy am I that he actually listens to me? ;-)

On my Ipad I can enlarge your pictures. Looks like you got a new pattern for Twister, the add a quarter ruler, ruler for Lemoyne Star and the Rapid Fire Hunter's Star pattern. You have some very nice bundles of fabric too. Nice haul!
