At the "Friday Late" last week, you could pick up a sewing kit, find a quiet spot, and get to work -"First Aid" posts around the museum provided practical help -
Because of the rotten weather, the events that should have taken place in the garden were moved indoors. This is a steeplechase on sewing machines -
It might have been a good time to see the Quilts exhibition, but I went to see Horace Walpole at Strawberry Hill instead. The exit was through the shop, and there were many quilt books on display -
indeed, an entire room of the shop devoted to fabric and other temptations -
including these cards of buttons covered in the special V&A fabrics - at £6 a card. How nicely packaged they are -
Caren Garfen has expanded from embroidery on cloth to a range of tempting merchandise -
