On Sunday the 20th of November we attended the Carew Manor Craft Fair. It was a foggy morning and a bit chilly. Three of us arrived early to set up and man the stall for a couple of hours. There were a variety of crafts represented, including jewellery, knitting, candles, glass painting, woodcrafts, cakes, preserves, christmas decorations, stitched items and our patchwork stall. There was a steady flow of vistitors to the Fair, some were interested in what we are doing and stopped for a chat and/or purchase. As usual, people asked 'Did we have any ...?' and it was something we had not thought of making. We managed to raise £85 on this occasion, bringing the sum raised so far to £2,247.
A big Thank You to every one who helped by making things to sell, manning the stall at the events and all those generous people for buying our work. We hope many of you will come along to the exhibition next April at the Europa Gallery in Sutton library to see more of our work and that of our twinned French and German quilters.
You have all done so well!! Cannot wait to see all your work - do post the actual dates on your site so I can book in my diary!!
