Mum's weekend (Part One)

I visited the ICHF sewing for pleasure show (ICHF- Sewing for Pleasure) last year, by myself, and really enjoyed it, so this year I decided to invite my mum along and bought her tickets for her mother's day present.

I am a big fan of looking at all the student's work, looking at how an idea generates from the smallest object and generally getting inspiration from these shows. My mum is a big fan of shopping! Naively I didn't anticipate that this would entail standing by a lot of stalls whilst mum was purchasing! Still we had a fantastic day, got to see a bit of everything and to top it all off I won a workshop with Karen Delahunty (Karen Delahunty Designs) which I will be trying to fit in at some point. Karen was commissioned to make this fantastic dress for Cadbury's world which I love:

Here are a few of my images from the day:

A fabulous quilt on the cotton patch stand

One of the many A4 quilts

A cushion made from can can wool

It was a long, enjoyable day and I can't wait to go again next year!

Love,
Mrs Jones
