With the seasons rolling on the C word gets ever closer.
You may remember me selling my wares last year in
Rosie Lea tea rooms in Brockenhurst.
So why the sew and tell?
Whilst hunting down venues to sell my wares this year,
I discovered that there is to be a Christmas Fair
held at New Park Brockenhurst
(where they sell Christmas trees)
December 8th&9th.
So today I have the organiser of said fair
popping round to chat all things crafty.
I've been hastily gathering anything I can find.
I made these pin cushions in spring with the aim of
selling in summer!!
I also have a table full of Christmas decorations,
but you'll have to wait..it's too early!
ps. I am not selling my handsewn quilts, no way!
Just showing.
pps. buy handmade
not mass produced rubbish pretending to be handmade!!

I love the hexie pincushions. I bought my hexie pincushion when I was 10 from a nice lady at a village fete, twenty-mumble years later it's still going strong but it's getting a bit crowded with ordinary pins, quilting pins and goodness knows how many needles. Good luck with your fairs - love your stuff!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll sell out straight away! Your little pincushions are so sweet!! I've just found your new blog, (i was a subscriber to the old one, must have missed the final post!) glad to see you again and your wonderful quilting projects! :D

Ciao Bella! Love your PPS. I suddenly threw the dreams of traveling to India to pick gorgeous fabric, design items and get a bunch of women sewing things for me for retail... Nahhhh, If I don't make it there is no love to be found. Thanks for reminding me.
