CraftExpo Melbourne 2009

Had a great time in Melbourne, sorry no photos of the stand or the customers, just so busy. It must have been the food proximity or the shortcut to the ladies. Talking of Melbourne food, we sampled inventive muesli breakfasts, such wonderful soup kitchens and tiny alternative Restaurants down narrow side alleys. Yum Yum.

Took the Trams to explore Melbourne on the day off, and found eclectic co ops, ethnic bakeries and great antique shops, sadly most were closed. But peering through windows is fun (reminds me of my antique shop stitchery). This boy doesn’t have a choice where his bed lies.

Finally managed to get to the Famous Victorian Markets and sampled the Deli lines. So many choices, you are lucky people you Victorians.

Found many teapots that I would love to possess.

And of course..finished off the Melbourne trip with a visit to Koko Black for treats and some stitching time.

Hi Ella, Good to see you at the Melbourne Show, albeit for a short while.
We are very lucky in Melbourne; so many nooks and crannies to investigate.
When we next meet (in a couple of weeks) I will give you the address of a great little find- wellknown by Melburnians. It is an old art deco building that has been developed with little studios.
Also, a great little fabric shop in Flinders Lane,
Keep stitching
