Stitch and Creative Crafts Bath 24-27 April

[egratsia]

Hello I was just wondering if any of our sponsors will be at Royal Bath & West Showground, Shepton Mallet, Somerset.

There isn't a list up on the official site yet, and I was just curious ... also are any UKScrappers members going, or have been in the past?

hello, i've been for the last 3 years now... not as big as Exeter.

I'm hoping to go and have been for about 4 or 5 years now. It is not as big as the Cardiff one in November - which I missed this year but I really enjoy it because it is not TOO big and most of the time you can get to the stalls.

I've been to the one in Escher run by the same people[during my last trip to the UK], and I enjoyed it. So thought I'd check this one out too! I plan to go on the Friday! ;)

When buying tickets I think its great that you can just print them out when paying on-line its great

amanda

see you there!!

[egratsia]

Will you be going on a Friday Amanda?

[LouiseBarrett]

I have been! Not going this year as I am away that weekend.

It seems to have got smaller over the years and is more general craft than scrapbooking specifically BUT...............It's lovely to have something closer to home than London or Birmingham!:lol:

I am hoping to get to this show on Saturday. Have been once before years ago ( about 2000). Amanda, I have pm'd you.


Btw just reread this, it was in 2000 that I went. Not 2000 years ago!

[egratsia]

LOL!!! I was wondering how far back people were scrapping in the UK!!! LOL :D

[egratsia]

Okay I'll be there on Thursday now, things got juggled around!!! :D Have you seen on the main site that Debbi Moore will be doing workshops??? That sounds interesting!!!

[~amanda~]

Did anyone go on Thursday, and what did they think? A friend has told me that she managed to walk around the entire place in half an hour and didn't think much of it at all. Don't want to go on Saturday if it isn't very good.

[egratsia]

I went ... there was a wide variety of stuff ... more geared for cardmakers I think ... I managed to spend about 80 pounds but then I come from a deprived scrapping country !!! It is out in the middle of nowhere ... did have a few bargains!

[primrose]

Glad you managed to make the trip worthwhile egratsia!

I was planning to go today, but family stuff has intervened I'm afraid!

[OceanBreeze]

Well I went today for the first time ... I have to say I wasn't impressed at all, it wasn't as big as I was expecting ... and I didn't think there was much there for scrapbooking or cardmaking. So all in all I was really disappointed :(

[Kitchencrafter]

I did go and spent four hours there. Had quite a good time with a workshop and did buy some bits and pieces. It was about the size I was expecting, but they could have got more upstairs so obviously the trade weren't interested. Perhaps the hire of space was too high.
