The London meet up at the Fashion and Textile Museum last week was so much fun!

To our surprise, an enthusiastic crowd of you arrived early and got to watch Heidi, a.k.a. heidiadnum, setting up her photography corner and Matt and I doing our star-jump warm ups.

I was delighted to see everyone mingling with ease and was lucky enough to witness many a serendipitous connection and new friendship being formed throughout the evening.

Apologies to those expecting a brunette UK blogger. I was bearing the scars of a rather ill-fated trip to the hairdresser’s the day before.

It was a wonderful pleasure to meet so very many passionate and talented UKers — I do hope to see you all, and many more, at future events!

Special thanks goes to Heidi (who you can also find at heidiadnum.com) for doing such a stellar job of supplying photography tips and taking crowd shots on the night, all of which you can view in this special slide-show:

The London meet up completed a trio of events recently coordinated by the European Etsy Team — AmelieFrenchie and Stephanie, a.k.a. detourneuse, hosted a craft night in Paris in March:
