Whoever goes please take your camera and share the delights with us SWMBO and I have accompanied each other to Craft shows for ever it seems initially when Wilma was bitten by the Quilting Bug I said as long as I am around enjoy the fun of your hobbies and never give thought to the cost I will meet that always to allow you to relax and pursue the fun without stress, reciprical feelings always have meant never any stress over my obsessive hobbies plural best friends for 63 yrs now prove its a good formula.

Missed the last 2 years, but will be at Harrowgate on Friday this year. Got some bits on the stalls with my name on them.:winking: Found that is the best way these days, it beats them being sold out.

Have been thinking of having a look at the Midland show, last time I was at Harrowgate it was manic, all part of the fun though.

I have a question to those of who have been to Harrogate before. Does anyone know if there is usually anyone there selling pen mandrels? I want to get a Planet mandrel and I wasn't sure whether to wait for the show or just get one. I realise it's maybe a difficult one to answer as exhibitor s change but thought I'd ask anyway :thumbs:
