Apologies, I missed the memo that we were all linking up today, so got caught with my proverbial bloggy pants down!
Anywho, I’m Katy, from Glasgow (well, I live there, I’m originally from Belfast, and have stopped in several continents on my way here!). I’ve sewed on and off for years, but made my first quilt last September, which was also when I joined my first bee – bless Jenna for trusting me when I said I could sew, and it couldn’t be that difficult, right? ;o)
This is what I look like on a really good day with the wind blowing in the right direction…
I will be doing the following classes:
Saturday am – Freezer paper piecing with Kerry
Saturday pm – English Paper Piecing with Tacha
Sunday am – Fat Quarterly Designer challenge
Sunday pm – Portholes with Lucie
I’m also in the Iron Man challenge, group 6
This is what my pile o’ crap for my classes and the swaps looks like:
And here’s my bag partly packed – I think I need a bit more lateral thinking than the shove and squish method ;o)
One more Tesco tote should do it though :oD
Looking forward to meeting everyone there, but I think I may be paralysed with fear in a corner, wibbling for a while! After that you probably won’t be able to shut me up ;o)
Have fun. No, you won't be off in a corner because you are shy.
Hugs
Almost all our classes are the same! I'll be the one with the angry face 🙂
You can't be in a corner. You'll be too busy making short jokes to me.
cute frock 🙂 See you next week x
Travelling Tesco? You will have to up your game for Sewing Summit!!!
Can't wait xxx
I'm thinking there might not be enough corners for all of us… you can hide under my black&blue beast if you like… But I doubt you'll need to really, you'll be chasing me to get Jack back…
Yeah I'm in the same class as you on Saturday morning I think. You are very organised, my stuff is still strewn all around the house, and so i will be employing the stuff and squish method next Thursday evening! See you soon x
Have a great time, you will be the life of the party.
Shove squish and sit on is my way of packing.
Hugs
Goodluck!!! It looks like it is going to be tons of fun!
You don't strike me as the wobbling type at all. Ok auto correct took wibble and made wobble. See you next week!

Sorry my iPad keeps posting twice!
I intend to employ the squish and squash method too. I do try to be ultra organised with wallets and plastic zippys etc. but never seem to pull it off! See you soon!
awwww, you'll be FINE! We can wibble in a corner together 😀
Oh damn I wish I was going!!! You are going to have way too much fun. The Porthole quilt looks awesome! I can't imagine you in a corner, unless it's because you're too cheeky and the teacher sends you there!
look foward to seeing you there on Saturday
Looking forward to meeting you ( i am just as wibbly)
You are one pretty lady!
When you're fling the squish and squash method isn't so effective. 🙂 See you soon.
Flying not fling. LOL
Have a marvellous time!
I can't wait to meet you in real life, in fact I am fit to bursting (a bit like your packed bags ;0)
Hi Katy, see you in Freezer Paper Piecing class!
I like your packing style. Looking forward to meeting you next week 🙂
So excited to meet you Katy – you look so glam!
You just need a Mary Poppins bag and everything would be easier. I am looking forward to seeing you on the weekend.
your gorgeous,love the dress and can't wait to meet you, perhaps swop mini moos 🙂
You definitely won't be able to shut her up. She learned to talk very early and has been practising full volume, non-stop ever since. So take advantage of the shy moments they won't last.
Dad 🙂
I am now officially in a major funk…why oh why can I not be there. Oh yeah, I live a 9 hour plane ride away!
Count me as officially sad. I will be in mourning this week, but thinking happy thoughts for all of you getting to meet for the first time!
I hope I like you as much as I think I do. Else SS will be most awkward.
Im kidding, of course. Can't wait to meet you!!!
So can I place a Tescos order with you, and you'll deliver to retreat for me?
Like Laura, I hope I like you, we're going to have a pretty awful year ahead if we don't hit it off. Just kidding. Well…sort of…
See you sat am and sun pm, Im in class with you then! I have a pile in the corner comprising of 6 tote bags, I think I need to whittle it down. Trouble is I just keep adding to it!
Paralysed with fear?
In a corner?
I don't believe that of you, you super model!
Can I talk to you when at the retreat?
(or get your autograph)
LOL
Can I hide behind you in the corner? 😉 See you in a few days time 🙂
I wish I could come and have a chat with you. Have fun! Oh, I know you will.
Are there mini MOOs in the second photo??
Must say first that I love the ribbony dress in your picture.
I'm looking forward to a good group wibble, when we all arrive scared and with down cast eyes then by the end hugs and fond farewells. I MAY have been watching too many American movies mind you…
ha ha! love the pile o crap and the packing method! very organised of to you to have pics already, think it'll be a friday night activity over here! x
Your dad outed you as a talker. Think that is so funny! See you on sat.
