Pumpkins...

Fairs...Fairs....Fairs

I'm off to Hull Craft Collective Fair at the weekend....using public transport! Hmmm....it's going to be an interesting journey with a train and a bus to catch. I'm wondering just how much I'll be able to carry on my own...and if I have one of my big mammy dolls on my knee at least I won't have to pay for a seat for her!

...and there's more...

I decided today would be a good day to attempt to wash my 2 sheep fleeces that were so generously given to me by a lovely local lady who just happened to have black sheep and saw my moans about how difficult it was to source doll hair!
I took some advice from another crafty friend (who is a fantastic spinner) on how to wash them ready for use...and it's on it's way...once it's all done I should have enough to last me a very long time!

Work in Progress...

Had a very busy few days at 'Crafts Uncovered'...lots of dolls are now ready to dress...and I'm bursting with new ideas for the next lot...just wish my brain could slow down a bit so my fingers could catch up!!!

Crafts uncovered...

Well, I'm all packed up and ready for this event...going to be painting faces on dolls today. I normally like to do this on a very quiet morning at home when I'm in a really good mood...they usually turn out better that way, so today will be a bit of an experiment...I'm hoping I don't end up with a pile of witches!

Latest news.....

Come and find me on FACEBOOK to keep up to date with my latest creations..they always seem to find their way there first!

Crafts uncovered...

I'm working my socks off ready for my next event which is CRAFTS UNCOVERED (a selected group of crafters demonstrating their craft and a sale of work...a great way to see the skills involved and 'meet the makers') at the Water's Edge Visitor Centre. For those that haven't visited before, this is a lovely day out with lots to do in the visitor centre, a fabulous country park and of course our event...and even better it's completely FREE!
It's just down the road from the Ropewalk which is also well worth a visit and again completely FREE!Check out the links above (click on the coloured words) for more information.

Spent a very sooty two days at Hull Veterans weekend! Why sooty? Because for two days we had two large traction engines directly opposite our marquee blowing in their thick black sooty smoke!! Not an event I'll repeat....took a full day to clean all of my dolls!
