First Rate Service

On Monday evening we had Jae Maries give a very inspirational talk at our Embroiderers' Guild meeting. Following on from this she is running a workshop linked with the seasons this Saturday. I was lucky enough to get a place and had the reqirements list ages ago, but I thought I would wait until I heard her talk before putting my bag of goodies together. I left the meeting in a slight panic as her work is out of my comfort zone and wondered what I was going to do. Then last night after reading a magazine article inspiration hit me, this work might even lead to an idea for a forth coming piece of work for Material Girls, next year. This meant that I needed some new threads and so I researched online. This morning I phoned 21st Century Yarns to place my urgent order, only to find that they are setting up their stall at the Knit & Stitch show in Harrogate. Not a problem though she picked up some of the theads that I wanted and took a list of a few others that hadn't been unpacked yet and promised to post them today. You really can't get a better service than that. Hopefully the postal service won't let me down and they will arrive in time to take to the workshop on Saturday.
