I had a great time yesterday at The Stitches and Craft Show. I don't normally go to this one, we usually just go to the Quilt and Craft fair that's in October, but I couldn't not go to this one, knowing that "The Frock" was there!
And, it didn't disappoint! Truly a work of art Jodie!
And if you look closely enough in this pic, you can see my selvedge! See, the one that say's "Twigs and Sprigs", that's mine!!
Funny story, when holding up the very edge of the dress with one finger to find my selvedge, I was very nearly escorted politely from the building! A rather tall woman headed over to me and said, "Do not touch the dress", very scary! (and a little funny!)
My favourite section was the bloggers, of course. I met the very lovely Rebecca from edward and lilly, who was watching the stall for Dear Fii, which was such a pretty stall, and such talent!
I was very well restrained, and hardly spent a cent. I did however nick off with some very tiny bits of fabric from the Reconstruction Zone, do you think they'll miss them?

I was the opposite of restrained! Oh dear...
I wasn't gamed to touch the dress! But I bet Jodie will get a laugh! :)
I didn't realise she would have body guards - how funny....
ha ha - just click on that second picture to make it bigger - that must have been two glasses of red sewing on that section!
That's so funny...who knew there were craft police!
Yes! I did notice those particular pieces of fabric were missing from the Reconstruction Zone ;)
