![]() When I went to the Festival of Quilts at the NEC, Birmingham this year, I was able to meet up with an old "friend" - the lovely Kim from "The Fat Quarters". It's always nice to see her, she's always bright and friendly and always make time to stop for a chat. Here you can see some of the lovely Red Brolley patterns that she sells..... ![]() .....her stall was filled with lots of samples of quilts and cushions and bags, and really did give an essence of her quilt shop, which is in Northumberland..... ![]() .....I have a subscription for the Australian "Homespun" magazine through The Fat Quarters, and have often chatted to Kim on the phone, so when I actually met her for the first time a couple of years ago it was great to see her at last..... ![]() .....it was really lovely to see you again this year Kim! Now - maybe I can persuade Mr F to take me on a trip to Northumberland to visit Kim's shop in person - wonder what he would say to that idea!!!

I'm trying to persuade Mr F that we really NEED to have a long weekend up in Northumberland - oh and of course I'd just have to pop in and say hello ;)
