I was just popping in to say how much I miss op shopping in Wellington. There is nowhere in NZ like the Wellington tip shop, or the Petone st. Vincent's. Le sigh. Napier hasn't a hope of comparing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20633968.post-64299320352765701252014-03-03T07:35:10.533+09:002014-03-03T07:35:10.533+09:00Words cannot express how much I miss Op Shopping i...Words cannot express how much I miss Op Shopping in Wellington. From the legendary Wellington tip shop, through to Petone and Lower Hutt. Napier hasn't got a hope in comparing itself to these beauties!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20633968.post-4717071052672155352011-10-14T07:34:19.938+09:002011-10-14T07:34:19.938+09:00I love the heart breaker fabric!

I always have trouble making them myself though. Inevitably I sew the crotch together wrong, and have to unpick & do it again.Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07395668352640656250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20633968.post-90758899987274709642011-10-12T16:59:30.144+09:002011-10-12T16:59:30.144+09:00@ Vix - yes pics are on the way - but it is a week...@ Vix - yes pics are on the way - but it is a weekend job sadly as there are SO MANY!<br /><br />@Meg - It is so annoying! The op shops are really picked over in Wellington central. Kilbirnie is usally good (suburb of Wellington) but I can only make it there on Saturdays.<br /><br />@Alicia, CB & Cosmia - In NZ we don't have thrift shops - our second had shops are called "Opportunity Shops". So we don't go thrifting but we do go op shopping^^<br /><br />@Helga - I think you would LOVE Napier! You and G should take a break from Quaky town and go for a visit:)<br /><br />@Sadie - I haven't gone to Kath's sewing club yet but planning on going next week as they have a coffee meet up. Sorry to hear you are so sick - so many nasty bugs going around.
