We made pincushions. I want to make about 30,000 of these, they're so cute.
We gave gifts. Mine was from the very talented Kootoyoo . She made me a tonne of lovely accessories. I wish I'd remembered to take a picture before I ripped in to the wrapping as it was a gift in itself. If you want to see what I made you should pop over to Kootoyoo as she got my gift.
I bought fabric. I'd never visited Amitie before and I'm glad I was forewarned and saved a little pocket money for the visit. They have so many great fabrics. I was so very lucky and won a door prize which added another $10 to my spending money. Cool huh?Yep, Mixtogether was unreal. I can't wait to go again. It's run by the amazing women who produce Mix Tape. If you can't get to a Mixtogether then get yourself a Mix Tape to keep you happy.

You bought some lovely things Cathy. It was a great afternoon.
It was lovely to meet you too, Cathy and i think Kirsty's wrapping skill was fab! Do you think she'd rent herself out come christmas time? Hope you have fun with the fabrics!
Babushka doll fabric! I have never seen it in the flesh, this one is STUNNING. Must get to Amite next visit south if they still have it next year! Lovely Kirsty-ness too!
Absolutely delighted to have met with y'all yesterday. Think I was a little quiet and oddly distracted but nevertheless had a fantastic time* Had NOOOO money to shop at Amitie (payday on Wednesday) but am DEF going back for some goodies I spied...
I agree, that pin cushion project was AWESOME fun!

love your pincushion! sounds like a great day out...ive heard great things about Amitie fabric store!
Cute pincushion. Sounds like a great day. I bet the Amitie shop is amazing-love a good fabric spend up!
Wow, these things always look like great ways to spend an afternoon. And fabric purchases too, what a great arvo.
What a cute pincushion. I have an old tomato shaped one that is functional but not cute. I think I need some cute accessories when I sew. Was it hard? What did you stuff it with, regular stuffing? My pincushions always feel like they're stuffed with sawdust.
That pincushion is so lovely, nice to see it got pride of place at the top of the post. Nice to hear you had so much fun.
Looks like you had a great day! Good luck in the vintage button giveaway!
Oh, it's all so fabulous, I'm totally jealous :)
Looks like super fun! If you're making 30, 000 pin cushions, make one for me, they're cute!
