Thursday saw me take a day off work and spend a lovely day with the Coven at the Craft 4 Crafters event, a whole day with likeminded people, craft classes and stash.
I was VERY restrained and bought items on my list, card blanks and cello bags (as I have almost run out), a guitar die (forgot to take a photo) and some magnetic sheets (as I store all my thin dies in a homemade ring binder on these sheets.
Then I came across a stall (sewing-sanctuary.com) selling cotton backed laminated fabric, think, robust yet flexible-I am thinking messenger bag or wash bag-only £4 for a fat quarter so I bought these two as I fell in love with the designs (they were NOT on my list!)
I also bought from the Weston Super Mare quilters stall this pen/pencil holder which fits perfectly on my urban sketchers book (and it was only £3 and all for charity!)
We also signed up for a glass bunting class, it was with the same company we made the glass hanger last year (Glass Garden Studio)
It took 1.5hrs and we came away with a lovely piece of handmade bunting
Which in the end I decided to hang across the top of one of my bookcases (just below a fabric doll I made with Coven a few years ago).
A great day out and I do love glass making, over the years I have made a window hanger, blown a paperweight, blown a hanging glass bauble and now bunting-happy days.
Happy crafting
that glass bunting is fantastic!! what a great workshop. Love the fat quarters too. I'd have been tempted and I don't sew!
