I haven't had much time to blog lately cause I've been working like mad for the past 4 weeks to get ready for this weekends craft fair. I booked to do a two day weekend Christmas craft fair at the main furniture company in Green hammerton near york. Its a great craft fair set in a lovely open warehouse full of some of the nicest hand crafted furniture I've seen.
I made meters and meters of Christmas bunting, lots of scarfs and headband to warm little ears, pincushions for lonely pins and hand embroidered tree ornaments.
I really shouldn't have worried as the amiguramis were the hit of the weekend. All the omnipoms and nearly all my other amigurumis have found new homes and I've been given some great ideas for new amigurumi that I'll be making soon.
This was my table at the start of the fair, I didn't take a photo but it was very depleted by the end of the weekend :)
The felt birdies and hand embroidered ornaments went down well too. I still have a few left so I'll be listing some in my etsy shop over the next couple of days
I'm very tired tonight but I'm also itching to get started on some new projects. There are some new omnipoms coming up soon including a Ziggy stardust inspired one and I've a few little Christmas amigurumi patterns up my sleeve that you'll be able to whip up in no time to add to your festive decorations.
For now I think I deserve a glass of wine and to put my feet up for the night (I give it 10 mins before my fingers start itching to get cracking crocheting again I'm hopeless) :D
