This Weekend at Killearn.

Yesterday was the monthly Wee Green Market at Killearn which is always a great opportunity to catch up with other crafters and buy some fantastic local crafts and produce. It was a very busy market and there were a few new stalls which is great to see - news is spreading about the quality and variety of things on offer! It is the first opportunity that I have had to show some new things that I have been working on and to get some feedback on them. I was really chuffed to sell quite a few things including a couple of my new felted tweed Scottie Keyrings..........

Another new product is my simple contrasting tweeds Pincushion.........

I also made some bigger drawstring Project Bags which I will be putting in my Etsy shop in the next couple of days.............

I have made them slightly larger than the ones I made originally to easily accomodate small knitting and crochet projects. I have also been making more of the Colinette wool corsages which have also proved popular.........

and I finally got around to doing something with this lovely printed logo that came on one of my tweed orders - I was going to frame it but then I saw this emroidery ring and thought it would look nice in that. It has become part of my table display.....

I am going to have to get my act together quickly as I need to sort out my labels/business cards and table display if I am to look in any way professional at the Edinburgh Festival Craft Fair in a couple of months time!! At the moment my display is a mish mash of things I already had and things that I have bought from charity shops and I feel it needs to be a little more cohesive. Will add 'Design new Display' to my ever growing list of things to do! I am off to panic and drink wine!

That all sounds so exciting and that things are coming together in the right direction.

I love the draw string pouches for projects.
