Despite a few transport difficulties
caused by the Icelandic ash cloud the
Belfast Stitch and Creative Crafts Show
proved yet again to be an overwhelming
success with visitors from both north
and south indulging their passion for
everything crafty and enjoying a wide
and varied selection of crafts, hobbies
and supplies from 90 traders at the
King's Hall.
Workshops, Make & Takes and Demonstrations
Unfortunately, flight cancellations prevented Stephanie Weightman from attending the show on Thursday but after travelling by land and sea arrived to host Friday and Saturday's workshops.
Workshops were also presented by Debbi Moore and The Northern Ireland Beaders' Guild. Bead workshops by Findingbeads4U proved ever popular with opportunities to make necklaces, bracelets and handbag and 'phone charms all from beads!
