I can't tell you how absolutely exhausted I was after two whole days at the Melbourne AQM!
last Friday afternoon there I was setting up my part of the Creative Abundance stand, I can't tell you what amazingly talented company I was in! truly inspirational
I was so happy to meet so many lovely people who love my designs, always a relief!
and a real treat to meet a few people who's work I have admired for many years.
I was even given a few treats to have a play with, Anni Downs from Hatched and Patched gave me three bundles of her gorgeous felted wool to try, I am in love with the colours and the wool is so soft. I can't wait to start sketching and playing with ideas.
It was also a pleasure to meet Pam from Cottage Garden Threads who gave me two gorgeous skeins of her variegated threads to try.

All together a great show, already starting to plan for next year!
I still have one more design to write up before the end of the year so better get back to it.
Until next time
Blessings
