Of to the Olympics

 Having made the dog and wellington bag I was asked to make one in apple fabric for

Sandra of Ashill Fruit Farm.
                                                 www.norfolkpureapplejuice.co.uk

I have added extra pockets as this bag is off to the Olympic's with her.

We use to meet at a market that has now closed due to lack of village support.

Sandra also wanted this bag to take to markets to hold different things on her stall.

I will make some more bag's for Apple Day at Gressinhall  in October.

I do not know what design I will do yet.

That and the other raffle was drawn so there are some very happy

people to-day.

Just Some of the wonderful work

Half of the Bag raffle 

This is a beautiful piece of work I just could not do it justice.

The BIG raffle

The Big Quilt raffle was drawn Last night after the talk by Lynne Edwards.It was won by someone in the room so went on its way last night.Lynne as usual was very entertaining.She bought along some of the quilt she has purchased from other quilt makers as well as some from her student that are  in her new book.
I have photos of some of the quilt on show and will post them when I have a chance to see what has been posted by City Krafters on her blog.Of to Great Hockham to the Farmers Market before going back to the Exhibition. 

Exhibition Time Again

                                    This Quilt was donated partly made at our last exhibition.

                                                                It is now a raffle prize.

           
                                           I look forward to seeing any one, I will be there late Friday pm

                                          and again after I have been to Great Hockham Farmers Market.

Two Different days

All most ready.

Three off the Attleborough Town Hall Crafters

We had booked to have a stand at Pensthorpe garden and craft  fair.

We were hoping for good weather and it did stay dry.  When the

sun came out sun cream was needed.In fact Matt had his neck burnt.

By the end of the day Alffie had had enough.
( the Beagle )




The hand sewing machine created a lot of interested,

more than the things on my stall.

I did finish the bag so had to find some hand work to do

for the next day.

All done


Well the next day  was wet, ALL day but not quite as heavy as

thy had in London.


I now have got every thing dry and ready for the next outing

with the gazebo in two weeks time to Hockwold.
