STITCHY STATIONERY ON FACEBOOK. LINKS AND IMAGES WILL OPEN IN A NEW WINDOW. Sunday, 27 March 2011. International Craft and Hobby Fair (UK). Several weeks ago, I was asked by my good friend Rainy Day Crafter. If I fancied accompanying her to the ICHF. In Birmingham. As I had never previously attended anything like that, but have always wanted to, I jumped at the chance. The plan for the big day (last Thursday) was that I would catch the train at 08:45, and Rainy Day Crafter. BW194 Dancing in the Dark.

STITCHY STATIONERY ON FACEBOOK. LINKS AND IMAGES WILL OPEN IN A NEW WINDOW. Saturday, 13 July 2013.
