Friday FREEBIE - update

I start the morning with an “ooops I am sorry”. 
I made a mistake with the coding of the the Friday FREEBIE post.
Those of you without a blog have been unable to add your name to the list.
I have corrected it, and it will allow you to be added to the Friday FREEBIE draw.

I am very sorry for my error, the fun and games of writing a post while in hotel rooms!

We had a fantastic time at Olympia, The Spring Knitting and Stitching Show was very well attended.
I have no photos from the show, I had no time off the stand.
I made it to the ladies loo and back to the stand only.
By the time we had re-stocked in the morning, the lift doors were opening and the visitors were flooding in.

But I do have a few other pics to share. 
We were staying the other side of Earls Court Road – remember the looooong walk.

I even tried to ask The Doctor if he would transport me!

The morning walk was wonderful, it stayed dry for us everyday.
The sky on Sunday was pure blue

and the magnolia's were in full bloom, very pleasant and uplifting.

We have offloaded the stand and the girls are getting it ready for Hobbycrafts at the NEC this week.

Friday FREEBIE - one still to come

  Good morning everyone, a bit earlier than normal this morning.
Remember I mentioned that we could not book our normal hotel – Tony told me the new hotel was a walk away.
A WALK, more like a route march!

Ooooh I set you a difficult decision last Friday.  Vintage Butterflies or Owl ribbons.
To be honest I am not sure there was an outright winner between the two.
You love them both

Thanks for all your wonderful comments, it is always great to read them. 
Makes me feel closer to home in some way.

Another hotel room so I thought I would use our room number for todays winner, not the floor number. Although I would love to receive 700 entries……..maybe one day!

16  is………. Sammy

The vintage butterflies for me! I'm a huge fan of anything vintage, and it's butterflies over owls for me any day! x

Congratulations Sammy please email Bev bev.craftyribbons@gmail.com with your address details
and she will post you the Vintage butterflies WANT IT ALL collection of goodies.
You have until Thursday 20th March to claim your ribbons Sammy.

Today’s Friday FREEBIE prize is……

I ran out of time to launch all the new ribbons before I started the exhibitions.

So there is still one range to come.

Can you guess what it is.

There are 20 ribbons in the range, with lots of different colours.

For a chance to win ALL 20 ribbons add your name to the list and leave a comment with your thoughts.

IF – you have seen us in Paris, Metz, Glasgow or London you may have seen these ribbons
BUT…….
Please keep them a surprise and just leave a comment like “I know I saw them in……”

Must go I have a loooooooooong walk to Olympia.
Have a great weekend, anyone coming to see us over the weekend.

Tony and I arrived back from Glasgow late yesterday afternoon. 

Ooooh it is such a long way for us, but we had a wonderful warm welcome from my little fan club.
Sydney, Sam and Mollie all wanted to help unload the lorry and operate the tail lift!

The stand was off loaded, all the covers removed and the girls have been re-stocking the stand today.

I am pleased to say it all went like a dream and is already back on the lorry and ready to go to London. Thanks girls you are all amazing.

Is anyone coming to see us at The Spring Knitting and Stitching Show at Olympia London this week?

You can find us on stand number G20 – see you there.

  Good morning everyone, greetings from Scotland

Many thanks for to everyone that joined in with our Friday FREEBIE last week.
Looks like we have another winning range with the NEW Spring Owls.

It is strange how some computers and different internet connections will not let you do certain things!
So no random org today to pick the winners, so back to Tony, who is always there for me – arrrrh.
