craft fair work

been working like a mad woman for this fair, did it yesterday and sold 3 scarves ,3 waist coats and no booties even though everyone picked them up and said “oh how cute!”

also a picture there of some fabric I got from a charity shop, white and silver, think I’m going to put it on a black scarf.

 

Really want to do some weaving soon getting a hankering for it! So today I uploaded the bootees I didn’t sell to my etsy shop.

what I’ve been up too!

apart from looking after tootsie…I’ve been grabbing time to knit these for sale… have a look in my etsy shop byemmajo.etsy.com

 

I’ve also been given a lot of fabric for using on scarves which is great so I’ve been cutting like mad to get resady to sew and get ready for a craft fair on the 21st!!

One of each colourway I’ve done! many more colourways to do my wool stock is pretty amazing!

lots of interest in these!

Wow! my waistcoats are going like CRAZY! I had a fantastic day at the made in the shade craft fair yesterday at the light house.

Here’s some pics!

 

All these waistcoats are available at my shop www.jemmajo.etsy.com

Also sold a lot of scarves which was good!

Downstairs tootsie is putting up the tree with daddy.

fingers crossed!

got someone to come and see my machine on friday to tell me whether it is worth being fixed or not… still can’t believe it… was a wedding present 4 yrs ago …stayed in its box unopened til feb and  motor has given up already! So of course is out of guarantee, warranty etc….

Gosh I’d better sell some scarves at this craft fair on sat! I’ll need the money for a new sewing machine if its un fixable! Fingers crossed!

the sky is falling!

My computer went down my sewing machine has bust! – it feels like the sky is falling on my head!

on a positive note I phoned Invercottage and they definately are going to place an order for their exclusive Maclachlan tartan scarves in Jan so that is positive! Also  Maison Cadeaux is going to take some sale or return! Things are going up and down here! I really felt as if I had my arms cut off when the server was down though!

I got some black watch tartan at a good price so I was going to make a black watch check scarf for Saturdays craft fair – I’ll have to see if I can borrow some one elses machine!

The craft fair I am doing is ‘Made in the Shade’ at the light house GlaSGOW 10.30 til 5.30 this sat 25th of October.
