Looking great! Makes me sad not to be there though :frown:

You don't tend to find much for sale at the P&P but as long as you got your freebies you've done ok! lol.

Was this your first show? What took your fancy? Considering going tomorrow but. as I've been every year, I don't want to see the same stuff.

Did try to spot you bikertec but no luck.

Was my second show this year and to be honest I didn't think there was as much on as last year, more than likely not bother next year.

Apart from the usual 'dream on' machinery for embrodiery & DTG only 2 things impressed me. The image clip stuff from EZtrans and the Puff Vinyl which I had read about but not seen, although I can't imagine it being a big seller, more a novelty item. If anybody wants to see the EZtrans stuff they aren't easy to spot, they have a tiny stand on the Prestige Leisure section.

Stitch-Up, given the stuff you already do I would have thought the effort probably isn't worth it. Unless I'm mistaken the DTG side of things were less apparent this year than last.

I was even tempted to go and look round the caravan show until I saw the price of the tickets :)

Dave, the image klip stuff from EZtrans looks really easy, but it's a PITA and very expensive :(

I bought 100 sheets of it last year from them and it cost me over £150, and can't get my head round it still got about 80 odd sheets of it left as I'm not happy using it. The other thing is, if you're as much as 1 second out on your pressing times, it doesn't work :(

My hubby need to do it as I can't get the press open at maximum pressure, which is what is needed to get it to work.
