0 I Met Some Bloggers!

I met some more Wellington bloggers last weekend! 
We had a lot of fun...
There was fabric browsing, surprising pattern finds in an unassuming shop, and a swap!  Oh and of course plenty of nattering.

One of my favourite pics:
Us getting excited over the discovery of boxes of patterns!

I grabbed this from the second hand store:

I love it! 

And we had a fabric and pattern swap- I got some lovely floral cotton!

and I also got a vintage pattern- I'm thinking I'll have to grade it up even though it's my bust size (never done that before, eep!).  But oh the fabric possibilites!

"Simple to make"  Sure, sure...

They were all wearing lovely garments they'd made.  Impressive stuff, no?  I wore my wool circle skirt.  I'd better get cracking on a dress for the next meet-up- Oh and there will be a next meet-up!

You can check out more pictures and better write-ups on the meet-up on Nikki's and Mel's blogs :)
And special mention to poor Emily of Calico Stretch who was too sick to make it.  Get well soon!
