If you went down to the river in the last two days

You might of come across the Crafty Fox Market nestled in between the trees near the Tate Modern as part of the Craft Trail at this years Thames Festival. A whole weekend packed for of music, arts and crafts, dances, and devilish delights. I'm afraid I didn't get to wonder too far from around my pitch as the troublesome wind and I didn't really see eye to eye.. But have to say it was lovely to properly meet some fellow other like minder designers. 

Through the wind, sun, rain and rainbows fun was had by all... Sinead and Stephan are truly lovely fellows, I can't thank them enough for having me. 


Night time was the right time for just reminiscing

Treasures of last week

The other week I was rather lucky to find a haul of treasures.. two pairs of rather grand 1940s chestnut brown walking shoes ( will be perfect for winter)... also in the same lot a collection of stunning patterns and pattern magazines  -

I also have say the free patterns were intact...unheard of really.
