C'mon C'mon, Let's Get Together

 Busy Sewing Bloggers at the September 2012 Bath Meet up

I admit that I get a bit jealous when I read about all the blogger meet ups that happen down south. Having been fortunate to attend a few blogger meet ups (in Edinburgh, New York and Bath) I know that they are really fun, for what is better than to meet in real life people with whom you get on so well virtually?

I know there are a few Scottish bloggers who follow my blog or whose blogs I follow - I've even met some of you before! So who is up for a meet up in Glasgow? Not that you have to be based in Scotland to attend (or even a blogger, I should point out), obviously, perhaps you fancy a trip up north?

I was thinking about early 2014, Saturday 1st February to be exact. I thought it would be nice to have something to look forward to after the busy-ness of Christmas, plus it allows us to get a post-Christmas pay day under our belts.

I propose we go for afternoon tea perhaps with some fabric/wool shopping beforehand. Maybe we could have a fabric/yarn/patterns swap?  I'm open to ideas since I really have no idea how many people might be up for meeting, but most of all the chance to meet some like-minded people is what it's all about. If you've never met someone off the internet before, I promise you that this is the most pleasant and probably least risky way to do so.

If you are interested in meeting up please comment below (making sure that your email address is linked to your profile somehow) or email me directly (see contact links on the right) and I will be in touch.

So what do you reckon?
