A Family Event

My work basket goes most places with me- you can see it even in this picture which shows my bags on display in Embrace Arts at the RA Centre
My daughter Emma came with me to deliver this collection and through meeting the curator was offered spot next to mine at the first craft market to be held there.
I never thought I would be having a stall next to Emma at craft fairs! I felt very proud of her as she chatted confidently to customers and  posed happily for promotional photographs,which is something I still find a trial! Known as  Moody Chick on Folksy  Emma has been making her unique gifts since she was 13 to raise funds for summer camps.
 For this event she had been busy making hair slides and brooches.
                                             
As college has finished for the summer and jobs are hard to find I'm so pleased that she is going self employed and making  her business a success.
I guess my summer craft shows are all going to be family events!!

About Me

My Photo
. I love to create, always have... even as a child I was always up to my ears in fabric, yarn, paper and glue. So now I create bags, the process I use developed over time, and is still changing, each new wool or design presents it's own challenge. So I don't get bored. Craft Shows are so much fun,meeting folk, both customers and other crafters. I always get such a buzz when we are setting up and a plain old marquee or hall gets transformed into an arcade of interesting creations.
