I know exactly what you mean when you say that no matter where you might go, if you move, Manchester will always be home. <br /><br />Your fabrics look very similar to the colors from the palette builder. As always your rose stars are phenomenal!<br /><br />I am off to check out the Travellin' Pic Stitch Hop!<br />Bobbypin Bandithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14273808721693343490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842721577085503845.post-90076069345666571992012-10-24T13:18:38.426+01:002012-10-24T13:18:38.426+01:00Thank you for quick tour of Manchester, I've o...Thank you for quick tour of Manchester, I've only been there once, for just a few hours on a business trip 20 odd years ago!

I think it was a mix between cooking, smoke and cigarettes (?) I'd forgotten about the red brick everywhere, now I remember, years ago I'd get the bus into work every day (the 50 down Oxford Road) past the old Refuge building - I love that building - I think its still a hotel, when I was last in it they'd kept the most wonderful green tiles in the toilets.<br />Sarah xSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04017566963211340408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842721577085503845.post-38993820560188943882012-10-22T22:26:38.659+01:002012-10-22T22:26:38.659+01:00Hey Lucy, great photos and great tour!
