On Saturday (August 10) a group of Toronto Sewcialists met up in Toronto. The lovely Funnygrrl from Falling Through Your Clothes was in Toronto for a visit, so had put out the word about a meet-up.
I unfortunately could not make the earlier part of the day (the shopping on Queens Street part) as my running group was doing the weekly long run on Saturday rather than Sunday this week. As we were doing 29km I didn't want to do this by myself the next day!
Probably for the best as I haven't been sewing much for the last couple of months and have enough fabric to be getting on with! So I just admired other people's purchases!

Anyway I got into the city just before noon, just in time to join everyone for lunch at La Neuf Cafe. Well I don't know if the other patrons knew what was happening, There were 11 of us around the table and when the fabric and the patterns came out for the swap, the noise level just rose!!
But great fun was had by all and by the time the food arrived I think we all had some new goodies. I have a piece of mauve fabric that is going to make a lovely dress form a pattern I also scored here, and a piece of grey fabric that is going to make a lovely pencil skirt.

If I missed you in a pic or your blog, let me know!
Until next time... which I believe might be Ottawa Street in Hamilton in the Fall.
