Souvenirs of AQC

This afternoon I headed into town to go to the Australasian Quilt Convention. Here are my souvenirs of the visit:

• Souvenir pin - tick!

• Map of the layout of the show - No - they had run out by the middle of the first day??

• Kit to make a cute little Japanese purse - I was interested in doing the workshop, but apparently that books out in 5 minutes at the beginning of the day. The price of the kit was the same as the workshop, (although it includes No Batting) so I bought that instead.

• St John cold pack and bandage - was not in my plans! 

On my way in to the show, I somehow pulled a muscle in my calf which severely affected my ability to walk.  A friend saw me hobbling around, and got me some first-aid attention.  But that was the end of my visit - I was wheel-chaired to the entrance, where some other friends collected me and saw me home. While I was waiting for them, a lady handed me the Quilt Show Tote pattern.

So it was not quite the afternoon I had planned, but thanks to everyone who helped!
