Hello lovely makers, creators and all round lovely people... my apologies for being a little on the quiet side this week! BUT!! as you can probably guess from today's blog title, we have been at the ICHF show for 3 days, which has been mega full on!
I have to say that it was only this time last year that I did my first ever trade show, I was a little nervous to begin with, but soon was put at ease by the amazing wonderfully warm and encouraging comments that were made about my designs, stand and by the orders that came in.
Well this year we were back having only been supplying to the trade for just one short year and having learnt so much along the way!
Oh my goodness, as I said last year was brill, but this year was even better!! We had a full on packed stand for the most part of the show and literally 100s per day visited. So I thought I wold share a few pictures of my stand so you can see for yourself what people loved about it.
We worked very hard this year to make sure that we carried out our timeless classic and very vintage style all the way through to our stand display.
What really was the icing on the cake... was to see my old City and Guilds Tutor who came to see us and the stand, to see her sooo proud of what I had achieved from that course to this was just so, so humbling. Thank you Brenda for all your support then and now at The Old Needle Works, where you are exhibiting my work!! Thank YOU!
Hope you like as much as we do.
But for now!! Keeeeeeeeeeeep felting :)

Messing around at Tea Time!
Morning everyone... so heres the first of the "Tea Time range and my first prototype... I have been working on a new range of tea cosy's amongst other things to try and improve on my painting with fibre skills!!
This was my first attempt at this kind of style and looking at it now, it could do with some improvement. I am drawing a range of pictures which I aim to use as designs on my felted items so I have decided to practice a little more before releasing any for sale to the public. On reflection I feel that the tea cup is not sculpted enough and not centered enough, but thats the great thing about fibre its trial and error.
Well back to it more preparation for my opening.

Saturdays Christmas Arts Markets


Pictured above are a few pics from my stall, I did really well and was amazed at how much I sold, people bought my cards, Christmas decorations, decorated boxes, boxed notelets and my first felted Tea-Cosy!!!:) I have sold felted items before on my online store and by order but not at a market so I was thrilled.
I have designed some new felty bowls with some sumptously sweet names and will be showcasing those very soon.
