Sundresses tops and more

I decided to make a few sundresses, tops with matching shorts, dungarees this year for up coming craft fairs.

I've used a pretty little flower material and a nautical pattern for a seaside vibe.

These two are from a pattern I brought a few yrs ago.

I also found a few nice patterns in the local charity shop its the #Mundesley lifeboat charity shop that I visit most days.

This is the patterned hem I used to see how it looks.

 I like this little rose pattern its very pretty for little girls

I particularly like this daisy material I used french seams on this dress

These rompers are just the ticket for a day on the beach

Back to craft fairs

 

Looking for craft fairs

Now we've moved and settled in, I'm looking at starting craft fairs again, its been a while since my last fair, so I'm going to completely re-vamp my stock and starting small, firstly I'm going to make bootees, mitts and hat sets, then jackets, jumpers and cardigans, and possibly knitted leggings in co-ordinating colours, that can be mixed and matched.  

To catch customers eyes I'm going to make lovely bright colours.

With this in mind I'm hoping the local craft fairs are going to  start to open up again soon and I can visit them and get some booked for next yr. I'm even thinking of re-opening our Etsy shop so I must get the needles out and get some stock made.

I've now book a table at #Posh Crafts, craft fair on the 30th April at The Coronation Hall in Mundesley 

Really looking forward to meet some new people and hopefully make some new friends.

So come along and see me and all my new knitwear and you might find something for the little person in your family

The #Posh Crafts craft fair at Mundesley went really well, I met a lot of local people and made a few new crafter friends, and I'm hoping to get another stall soon.

Poppys for the village

 

Remembrance poppys

After the success of the octopus sales for the lifeboat, the next village knit along is for poppys.

These are simple knitted poppys to be attached to a fishing net. 

I've completed about 19 and have handed them over to #Norfolk needlecraft to be added to the rest.

Helping the Mundesley NICU charity knit

 

Charity knitted octopus

Whilst on holiday in May, we decided to have a second viewing of our new home that we should be        moving to soon, which is in the lovely seaside village of Mundesley .                                                            

As we got there a little bit to early we decided to have a wonder around the shops, so we parked up in the public carpark by The beach hut café, and walked through Gold Park towards the shops.

One of the shops there is Norfolk Needlecraft which I'm sure I will be visiting offend.!  

This shop is fantastic, not only does it stock yarn but out the back it has all manner of sewing kits, buttons, beads and so much more.

In the window my daughter pointed out the knitted octopus's and suggested I go in and collect the free pattern to make a few for the shops NICU charity, as I have a large collection of yarn bits and bobs, and as we're moving here soon we thought it would be a good way of getting involved in village life.

So far I've made 6 in assorted colours and multi coloured tentacles here are the first 5 one to finish.

If I get time I'll try to make a few more.
