What a wonderful fresh new Show..a lovely selection of exhibitors and traders. The organising of the show and venue were very good. My group Dovetales Mixed Mixed where extremely encouraged. Many Congrats to Tracy Fox for organising this New Show in our very own city!Onwards and upwards!!"

A fantastic show with so many talented craft people. The stalls were all full of so much excitement. Great for beginners or advanced craftsmen alike.We purchased so much from Scarves to Macrame kits. Looking forward to any future shows.xx

I was very much looking forward to this new event and it didn't disappoint. A Pandora's box of textile techniques which were demonstrated or exhibited or available to buy, some techniques all 3! Easy access just off the motorway, delicious cake, coffee and a friendly, comfortable atmosphere.

I really enjoyed this show, there was a great buzz about the hall. Some varied stalls and exhibitors and not too crowded that you couldn't get to the stalls. I liked the fact that it was a manageable size, not too big and overwhelming with space to explore the different textile crafts on offer, including some I hadn't seen before. Thank you.

Unfortunately I was unable to attend the show but I did exhibit some of my work which was handled with great care for which I am grateful. I know the work and dedication that went into the organisation and from friends who attended what a great success it was.

Enjoyed this new show. It was good to see such a wealth of local talent with an interesting mix of sales stalls and on our doorstep as well. Lovely friendly atmosphere .

I really enjoyed the show, met many like minded crafters who wanted to try something different. There was plenty of space to move around and see the stalls and exhibition, especially for the disabled. With the background hesitation due to rising covid numbers, I felt comfortable with more space. I even managed to buy some Christmas presents for people to try a different craft. The room wasn’t too hot or too cold either. My only concern was the queue for drinks, but that is easily remedied for next time.

It was a complete waste of time and money. The whole event was really really tiny, and there was very little there apart from quilting fabric and kits for beginners. The adverting was very very misleading.....completely over hyped and exaggerated. There was no weaving equipment there to buy at all...not even a single book.....and the £9 entrance fee.....don't get me started!. There were others there who were equally disappointed. Terrible. We left after 40 mins.

Wow! What a great day out I had. After reading all the information about the traders and exhibitors who would be there - it didn't disappoint. Quite the opposite. Whilst I was stewarding one of the exhibition areas, I spoke to many people - there was a real buzz in the hall. Lots of creative people sharing ideas and certainly sharing the purchases they'd made! I can't begin to imagine the organisation of putting on such an event and all of it done by one person. Tracy Fox you're amazing! I hope you have the energy to plan another one next year. x

Thank you so much Tracy for organising such an excellent show in the North West. It was great to see so many good traders and I really enjoyed looking at all the exhibitions of the excellent textile work being produced in our area. A great opportunity for visitors to locate a group near them. It was also a chance to catch up with friends old and new. I really enjoyed it.
