I also recommended a couple of places to go and two names for your quilt, but I seem to have disappeared into thin air. I don't know what happened, but that happened to me a couple of times yesterday, boohoo.QuiltSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18121195815836334067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4265401614148192566.post-57032840424128956682011-01-29T23:46:12.862+13:002011-01-29T23:46:12.862+13:00Me, Me, MEEEE.

As fo...Me, Me, MEEEE. I live about 25 miles away.<br /><br />As for craft shops, try Embsay Mills - quilting, embroidery, tapestry, cross-stitch and, I think, knitting too. It's opposite a steam train station if your DH is interested.<br /><br />You must have tea in Betty's Tea Rooms (world famous, old-fashioned tea room, waitresses in uniform, super cakes and service. You can google them.<br /><br />I'd love to meet up.<br /><br />I've thought of a name for your quilt too. How about Washday Blues or The shirts Off His Back?QuiltSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18121195815836334067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4265401614148192566.post-54254830436289707592011-01-29T08:48:57.536+13:002011-01-29T08:48:57.536+13:00Mmm, socks, no I've never tried them.

Lots of lovely wool around these days. I will be interested to read and see pics of your sock loom, when it arrives.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13596754983215564299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4265401614148192566.post-34527865870703355602011-01-29T06:12:57.282+13:002011-01-29T06:12:57.282+13:00I'm still to pluck up the courage to do socks....I'm still to pluck up the courage to do socks.

However, a little while ago Marmalade Rose had a weekend in Whitby. This post is very informative, including shops for you to visit. http://marmaladerose.blogspot.com/search/label/Whitby<br /><br />I know that we will spend a full day in Whitby after reading this. Of course, we have the Captain Cook connection as an added incentive to visit.<br />I can't wait to hear all about your week away. We might get some ideas for our trip.Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02288331185772160975noreply@blogger.com
