My plan was to make a quick trip to both the craft stores in town this morning before I’d have to catch a train. The weather however was not cooperating so when I saw the harsh winds and rain I figured I’d go next week. When I walked to train I was fifteen minutes early so I took a quick trip into the biggest store that coincidentaly was also having a sale. I picked up a magnet board for keeping track of the pattern (€ 6.99 -15%) and a super frame. The frame is 49 x 27 cm or 17 x 11 inch. It was the last one they had, and I know of no other hobby store close by that carries them. So, I am one step closed to being ready to start. All I need is to wait for the pattern and threads to be delivered and to buy the fabric. Yay!
