Oh how exciting! Last years stand was simply dreamy, I'd love to be there to see what you present at this years fair. I can imagine your latest range of cotton lawn with the beautiful tropical designs- especially the botanical flamenco, the blush rose (heavenly!) and the foliage canopy!! So many ideas pop into mind from simply browsing this collection!!
Good luck and have a wonderful Handmade Fair!

I'd love to get tickets to the fair – I managed to accidentally buy an awful lot of fabric from you last year! I love all your ex designer fabrics as I make clothes for work (dresses and jackets).
Many thanks

Geometrics are still doing it for me so would appreciate seeing some of those in viscose, jersey or scuba. Email: supernautsix2002@yahoo.co.uk
Graphic prints or some strong upholstery fabrics – saw some awesome jacquards on holiday in France and kicking myself for not getting some.
I'd love to buy some fabrics for winter makes – knits including pontes, plains and printed. I find it harder to choose plain fabrics online. So I hope I win your tickets and can see for myself your range of delicious fabrics! Thanks
Love to win tickets, and love it if you bring some of the flamingos please! (amhemmings@btinternet.com)
Ooooh this is exciting. You must take cobra corsage for everyone to enjoy. For me, I'd say some of the lovely floral scuba's. [diannelbowles@gmail.com]
