#NYlon2014 Meet-Up

Last Saturday I attended a sewing meet-up in London for the first time. I was one of 71 sewists taking part in the amazing meet-up arranged by Rachel.

We took over the V&A, and then took over the Goldhawk Road!

Before the meet-up I was paired with the lovely Ingrid for the name-tag swap. Ingrid made me an amazing tag inspired by my love of Star Trek.

I made Ingrid a mini dress name tag.

Due to lots of nattering about sewing I didn’t actually spent that long shopping, but I did get three lovely fabrics all of which are going to become dresses! I could not resist that Doraemon fabric. I’ve never seen one before but the shop actually had three different Doraemon fabrics.

Name Tag Swap – Sneak Peek

I’m currently on holiday in Paris (Yippee!), but before I left I managed to complete a name tag for the London meet-up taking place on May 17th. Mine is for Ingrid at We the Sewing. Here’s a sneak peek. I don’t want to totally ruin the surprise when Ingrid receives it in the mail.
