It was so lovely listening to you talking about your day with your Mum. I'm 68 yrs & my Mum's no longer here, but in the past I had some wonderful days out with my Mum to various shows & listening to your enthusiam with you Mum bought back so many lovely memories for me. Your content was lovely too.

Looks like you have lots of things to sew. About the bra plan on sewing it soon as it is so rewarding. The best part is once you start they sew up really fast as in a day. Look for a good pattern on line as there are so many really good patterns. Some can be expensive but once you get it all measured it will be the same size for all the bars you need. It is also fun if you can take a class as they are fun and rewarding. I live in Canada and sewing is the same over the world. Have lots of fun sewing.

I went for the first time this year, booked my flights and went for Thursday and Friday. I was a little disappointed, but probably didn’t go with the right expectations. It was pitched as a multi stitch craft event, and that is somewhat true, but as a yarn crafter there wasn’t much to keep me. I did pick up a cross stitch kit as a present and some beautiful buttons from Ethel and Joan for my current cardigan project. I will have to take up sewing before I go back. Thankfully there was a lovely yarn store nearby, Loop on Camden passage.

Ah sorry to hear that, it's definitely more sewing focused at this show! The knitting and stitching show is a lot more mixed, they had a huge variety of stalls when I went a couple of years ago so that could be worth a try 🥰

Hi Gina. I’ve just come across your channel as I recognised your face. Me and my sister were there on Friday too and were at Roy’s stall at the same time. I also bought some of that beautiful embroidered floral fabric. So hard to choose. Your mum suggested I buy a slip from M and S to wear underneath. It’s a fabulous show and me and my sister go every year too. Thanks for sharing your beautiful haul. Sarah 😊

I went on Thursday and clocked 9km of walking (according to my phone pedometer!) around the Design Centre. Had the best time. I nearly bought the lovely fabric you have picked up from Rainbow fabrics but I’m a redhead so not sure that it would work for me (such a beautiful print!). Spend my entire ‘craft fund’ at the show!!! Thanks for the round up video - really enjoyed it. Anna

Of the numerous blogs about the Stitch Festival, this is by far the best; it really felt like a guided tour. If you haven't already chosen your bra pattern, may I suggest the Harriet bra? From the start mine have always turned out brilliantly. And, Liz Sews offers a wonderful sew along, which shows how to hide the seams when lining it.

Gina have you ever shopped in Asia for fabrics? You would be in heaven. I’ve bought lots in India and when I lived in Hong Kong I would pop over the border to China and go mad in an entire huge floor of fabrics in every perceivable material. All at a fraction of the price in UK. I also shop in west london’s Indian fabric shops. although cut in pieces for an Indian 3 piece dress (shalwar kameez) it’s possible to play around with them.

Our local Joann Fabric is closing stores & the younger generation doesn't seem to embrace fabric & sewing. Thanks for a lovely glimpse into your sewing adventure & a sincere video for viewers to share your experience.

Great buys! I was also there Friday (& Saturday) and took some classes. Actually learned to crochet in a 2 hour class, which surprised me as I’d never even tried it before (good class). I bought 3 metres of a 98%wool/2%elastane thin wool fabric in a small check (cornflower blue)❤. And I bought a Juki overlocker 😜. I’d been looking and found the perfect one there to try out, etc., and they had a show discount. Great time! But I missed the bra making kits! Those look amazing!

How fun! I would love to do some classes one year. We need to be much more organised in booking onto stuff next year. How amazing to learn how to crochet that fast, I always think it's mega intimidating and it puts me off. Definitely on my to try list now! What a treat to get an overlocker, not to be dramatic but it'll change your life 😆❤️
