Back by popular demand I’m arranging another meet-up in Dewsbury on Saturday 6th February 2016.
The day will be the same or similar to our last meet up – link in the top menu (or HERE) with what we got up to last time.
Everyone’s welcome!
More details will follow, but as it’s only a few weeks away I thought you might like something to look forward to and have time to juggle child care etc so you can make it.
Hope you can make it!
Wooo! Count me in Mrs!!! Look forward to it…..best get saving up!! 👍
Ace! You don’t need to save up too much, the fabric is sooo cheap! 😃
True, true!! I have no lace left so might just spend it all on his lace stall….£1 a metre!! Am excited!!
Would love to come and join you this time K xXx
Fab!! Will be great to meet you 😀
Iif I could only blag a work trip home I would be there with bells on!!!
Wouldn’t that be fab!! We’ve got a month to come up with a good excuse for a little flight back to England!! 😃
Awesome! One of my goals for 2016 is to go to a sewing meet up!
Hope you’re free & can make one in! 😀
It’s in my diary 🙂
Fab!! Glad you can make it! 😀
Just a suggestion Ali, but at the Leeds meet they had a fabric / pattern swop for any fabrics you don’t want anymore, I’ve certainly got some lengths in my stash I could bring along!!
That’s a good idea, do you think we’d have room in that cafe where we met up??
Any more suggestions welcome as the only one I’ve been to is the one I organised last year!
Know it will be a frabjus day for all ~ grand idea for after New Year’s & before Valentine’s Day … (grinny-grin-grin!!)
It’s good to have something to look forward to, and we have a wedding on Valentine’s Day too! 😀
You’ll need a new dress… 😀
I sure will, but I bought one whilst we were away… Shock! Horror!! It was a bargain at only £10 but not sure if it’s ‘the’ dress for the wedding yet.
Ooooo ~ a store bought dress! Do tell!!
(grin-grin)
Oops, I actually bought 2, and a jumpsuit!! Very frivolous!! But proper bargains!! 😃
Whaaas??? T-h-r-e-e store bought’uns?!
Shock ~ horror indeed!
Fab, fab, fab! Still have relatives staying, but think this is a good date for me. Was so sad not to make it last year. Once visitors gone, will get childcare sorted 🙂 Thanks for organising again!
Yay! That’s fab! If it comes to it bring the kids, we all feel like we know them! You should be able to get a train direct to Dewsbury 😃
Should be fine, if husband busy have enough time to book Mum! Sounds fun 🙂
Since reading this post I have been on a mission to get childcare! The husband’s going to Sweden that day but I got my parents to agree to babysit (although I got them drunk first – hopefully they’ll remember!)
Haha! Brilliant news! 😀
Wish it wasn’t so far away!
It would be a bit of a trek! You’d have to come for more than a day!
Yes indeed, will have to persuade hubby Dewsbury is an excellent spot for a weekend break!
Maybe not Dewsbury itself, unless he wants to visit the Yorkshire Mining Museum but there’s lots to see & do around! 😃
Just looked up the trains but the cheapest return ticket is £143 so wouldn’t leave much for spending on fabric!
Oh no, that’s a bit steep! 😳
Wow a Yorkshire meet up! I’m only 45 mins away too 😀
Yay!! The more the merrier! 😃
Hoping I can arrange childcare and join in if that’s OK?
Course it is! And if you’re stuck bring the kiddos! Have you got far to come? 😃
Not at all; I’m Leeds based, grew up in Mirfield!
I lived in mirfield from being 8 to 11, have lived in Birkenshaw since. We’re almost neighbours!

Count me in!! So looking forward to a fabric and cake based day!
Ace!! 😀
Can I be a Yorkshire Spoolette even though I’m from Lancashire. I’d love to come to Dewsbury for cake and fabric. sounds good. I’ll have to make it provisional though because my mum is in hospital and I’m busy toing and froing to Southport hospital but hopefully I’ll be able to have a day off and be a Spoolette if you’ll let me!!!!
You can be an honorary Yorkshire Spoolette! There’s another very lovely Lancashire lady heading over the Pennines so you won’t feel out of place! Be good to see you again. Hope your mums ok 🤒
I would love to come, but I will be on my way back from holiday in Scotland that day and I don’t think I can persuade my lovely husband that we want to make a detour via Dewsbury. Maybe next time.
Lol, no he might not see the attraction of being surrounded by lots of fabric and ladies stroking said fabric!! Hope you’re keeping well, and hopefully see you at the next meet up! 😃
Hi Ali – if I can be an honorary Yorkshire Spoolette, living in Tyne & Wear, count me in. It’s a bit of a drive but I’ve never been to a meet-up, and do fancy going to one.
Course you can!! Will be lovely to meet you! Amanda is coming from Darlington, do you want me to get in touch with her, you might be able to car share?? 😃
Thanks – that’s a possibility, depending on when we start in Dewsbury? Either I could get train to Darlington and Amanda drive, sharing costs, or I pick her up and I drive?
Looking at trains, that might be a better option. Newcastle to York to Dewsbury. Any idea of times based on last time? Open ticket possible of course and might be preference otherwise restricted to certain train – cheaper option but more restrictive.
Last time we met in the cafe from 10 and stayed there til about 11. People left at different times but I think those of us who ate in weatherspoons stopped til about 3:30/4pm.
