Great Hardnanger week end

I went to a hardhanger instruction course this week end, at the Nimble Thimble in Oswestry.

It was a lovely week end with some really lovely people. Especialy Tina from Stitch and Stash forum, and her friend Pat. They are really lovely ladies, and we got on with each other straight away :)


On the Saturday we were given a bag with fabric, scissors with a welsh lady fob, 2x perle cotton, highlighter pen a packet of needles and instruction leaflets, and we got stuck in.

Cathy the instructor was very good and wizzed around in her electric wheel chair seeing to our mistakes and inquiries.


The food was lovely, all home made and very tasy, especially the home made cake! ..... I was a greedy madam and had two pieces today and Tina tried to take a photo but didn't quite manage it so there's no proof ... rofl


We payed a visit to the shop at the end of the day ... BOTH days rofl and managed to spend a few pennies, ... as you do! I bought one or two bits ....



I left Tina and her friend in the shop when I left, so I bet they spent even more than me rofl
