Harrogate Show

Had a lovely day on Sunday at the Great Northern Quilt & Needlecraft Show at Harrogate in Yorkshire. This event is much smaller than the Festival of Quilts but a good day out none-the-less. What's really good is meeting up with lots of friends. A bonus this year that 3 of our Circular Seagull Group Quilts were being exhibited. Well done to everyone who got them finished!

A few of us went to a demonstration about Wonderfil Speciality Threads.  Wonderfil is a Canadian Company which had been recommended by some Skipton friends. This was very interesting and , I have to say, I learned a lot about the different weight of threads. So I am now armed with a selection of lovely threads and dying to try them out.

I took lots of photos, of course, and ,as usual, Sheena Norquay's work caught my eye. I fand her a most inspirational craftswoman who creates the most beatiful work from sea and sand. Have a look at these.
