Sammi, you always said you wanted one so now you do!
I backstitched this design I made which was influenced by certain Mexican needle art.

I was still adding the finishing stitches to this on the day of the event! For this very individual summer bucket bag I’m asking just £18 + £2 postage & packing.
Recycled denim – – – embroided flowers and hearts – – – a few hours of beading work! – – – beautiful top quality floral printed cotton edging. This is a bucket bag – – – it stands firmly upright because of the thick plastic type material lining the bag. The top edge of the rigid plastic is hidden from view as there is a rich purple ribbon sewn around the top. Has a unique cushion in the base (same floral print as edging). Cute bucket bag / purse ideal for the summer!
Height without including handle 17 cm, and circumference, 13.5 cm.
* Remember, this bag is ONE of a kind,
took MANY hours to create and handstitch! *

We did it, Sugar and me, womanned and bitched our own table with The Little Log Cabin goodies – – – and plenty of lolly pops and teddy bear sweets for the kiddies!
I drank plenty of Tim Horton’s coffee (thx to Fiance and a good thermos flask!) But hated the humidity of the day (today is pouring in buckets!)
Wasn’t a huge success…but got a feel for what this particular event was about, namely people clearing out their old junk, selling it for next to nothing. I bought a pretty, square, wicker basket, the 4 sides decorated with straw(?) fruit; a handheld mirror from the 30’s or 40’s (cos I loved the design on the back of it, which reminded me of medieval embroidery, also I like to collect from that period); and a couple of craft mags, one of which I gave to Mum…
Mum’s homemade greeting cards sold well. especially the cute dollys! 😀
Although my various jewellery and bags / purses were admired no one bought…I assume due to the fact that this was just the wrong event for that.
I sold a few old books (I’m too much of a bookworm, needing to regularly go through all my reading material, which is usually donated to charity shops, family or friends) and was pleased that someone bought a jar of my apple chutney.
All in all, a worthwhile experience, nice meeting the neighbours and holiday makers and getting an idea of what this particular event is really about!

Ooooh I’m about to lose my craft exhibition event virginity – – – next Sunday – – – 26th July 2009 – – – will be my first ever craft event! Well, it isn’t exactly a huge craft event, although I suspect there will be others selling their crafts too…it’s a fundraiser for the village hall at Winterton.
Winterton Village Hall “Sale” Event, Winterton-on-Sea Norfolk UK
Sunday 26th July 2009
10.30 to 4.00
I better get back to crafting some more things. Hope to see you there! I’ll be the one with the cute Chihuahua (moral support) and long wild colourful hair! 😉
