Exhibition 1st July 2016

Stitching, Sewing and Hobbycrafts Show at the NEC, Birmingham

The first year of this event.  The organisers had distributed a lot of free tickets to bring people in to the show, and they succeeded!  My friend and I gave up trying to buy things because of the queues.  The retail stands were selling basic items, we didn't spot any new products or techniques and I only managed to purchase one of the items on my list - a pair of scissors.

There were a few displays though that we enjoyed.  A selection of photos of exhibits from the 'Second Turning Textile Group', 'Japanese Embroidery UK' and 'Contemporary Quilters' group.
