Dove Farm 2012
As I mentioned in my last post, the weekend before last I got together with several of my stitching friends on a farm in Derbyshire. Most of us met through the Teresa Wentzler Bulletin Board over ten years ago and for the last five years have been meeting up at Dove Farm in June for much chat, laughter and some crafting. As always we had a wonderful time, here are some pictures from the weekend.

Alpacas!
Baby Alpaca (Oh the cute!)
I did manage to do some of the finishing I wanted to and I got the smalls for the Red Rabbit Needlecase done. (I finished the needlecase back in 2011)

On the way back from the farm on Monday some of us went on a recce to a new to us quilt shop, Quiltessential at Cromford Mill.
Cromford is the original Arkwright water powered cotton mill.
And of course fabric was aquired!
The paw print and orange fabrics are to make some trousers for Christopher some trousers and the owl fabric is to patch Rosie's duvet cover
