    Default Stitch and Craft Show

    Hi everyone
    I went with a friend to a large Stitch and Craft show in Exeter (England) last Thursday. All I can say is WOWEEE.
    Did we have a ball, I spent far more than I planned but boy am I pleased with what I bought.
    All the fabrics below are Cotton Linen and I bought them with a project in mind. I am planning on makein a lap quilt using Jenny Doans tutorial on The Irish chain and to add a bit of interest to the quilt as a whole I am using the Stamp print with the plain. What do you all think of the general idea? All of the fabrics below I managed to get for half the regular price. Whooppee.
