Congratulations […] While I was at the show, any time I wasn’t serving customers, I was sitting at the front of my stand, stitching.

I find it interesting to note how many […] Vaupel and Heilenbeck 950 linen banding Another product I’ll be debuting at the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair, along with the Sardinian Knotted Embroidery Lavender Sachet Beginners Kit, is a beautiful creamy white linen banding: Vaupel and Heilenbeck Article 950.
