However, as there’s only one, I had to make it a good one! The Hardanger Filling Stitches sampler is a band sampler featuring as many Hardanger filling stitches as I could fit onto it! […] I’ll be at the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair next week. It runs from Wednesday 28th June to Saturday 1st July. Please note it no longer goes to Sunday – just Wednesday to Saturday!
