    Right I've just packed all the gardening mags into a box and I can even lift it :rotfl: Thats without all the other treasures I'm bringing do you think it might be a good idea to meet up in the carpark first to save anyone carrying stuff around?

    I have most Kitchen garden mags from 2004-2011 :o I had them all but little one had an accident with my coffee!
    I also have Grow your own from around the same date
    I've found a tea cosy knitting book and I can't knit for toffee :p
    2 x usborne xmas craft and xmas cooking books
    Kenwood chef book
    and I haven't even gone upstairs to start on the fabric yet lol
  • Oooh, fellow baggers! Angie from Hardy's Angels here, though I've moved on a bit too & tend to do Furoshiki bags now
    Thifty, I don't want to hijack this thread, :o but do you mention the Furoshiki bags on any other thread, I'd love to know more?

    I think what makes it worse Blossom is the fact that the majority of my
    fabric is by a designer whos stuff is discontinued/retired when she has new
    collections so I know I'll probably not be able to source certain designs ever
    again
    D&DD - her marketing strategy works then - and speaks to the very soul of hoarders! :)

    Fabrics if anyone wants/needs them?
    Toystory buzz ,toystory emperor zurg ,shrek,finding nemo,spiderman and bob the builder :D
    Some of these are quilt top sets or pillows (spiderman and bob)
    I don't have time at the moment to make them up and DS3 is a little old now for them,he's hanging on to scooby,spongebob and star wars instead lol

    Blossom I found a fair bit of the cabins fabric so will pop it in anyway it has fishing/men in boats/bears etc everything but cowboys but may be of use?

    Hi all

    Can't wait till tomorrow! Found a nice blouse and two pairs of small jeans in case any of you wants them, and a batch of Prima mags to bring.

    Hi to all the Morsbaggers, making me feel like dusting my machine and fabric stash!

    See you tomorrow!
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).
  • Looking forward to tomorrow.

    I do have a cold lurking around, so I shall be smiling from a polite distance rather than social kissing and the like - I'm not being standoffish, honest!

    I've looked about for something to bring, but unless anybody wants a slightly defective one year old cat with a broken tooth and half a braincell to come and celebrate his birthday with us, I don't think I have anything to bring. I shall scour the garden for plants.

    ETA: Don't bring sunflower seeds. I may be able to find a few :whistle: from the guerilla sunflower forest that appeared out the back this summer.


    Although, if anybody happens to have any tweed laying around the place, I might have a plan for it.....
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    I'm looking forward to meeting you all lets hope the weather is kind I can't see anything too bad forecast :D
    I'll bring the seeds etc in with me and leave the garden mags in the car then whoever wants them can grab some on their way home if thats ok??

    JoJo sorry to hear you're not feeling too great I have some heavier fabrics but not in a tweed would anything else be of any use?I have navy blue upholstery damask,green and white gingham but heavy cotton drill not the light stuff erm and probably other colours too :D Is it for a big or small project?

    I've got an IKEA tub chair that looks like the cat has tried to climb inside it. :) I have no idea what I'm doing, but I do have a staplegun and an underused sewing machine - and high hopes. I haven't decorated my bedroom yet, but I'm thinking of natural shades - leaf green, brown, that kind of thing - along with a red rug and wood furniture...

    Now you've got my imagination running away with me!
