Northside Makers Market Saturday 13th March

I am on tender hooks this morning, realising that in just under two weeks I have my next Market. In addition to that, I have some writing due and assessment reports due for school!



All the things that should have been ordered have been, like additional business cards. I have two different types of business cards my moo cards, cute, expensive and corporate ... and my vista print cards, less cute but more affordable for all the people who like to collect cards at markets.

My All I need to do now is make more stock to fill the gaps in my stock left by online orders this week and then do a pre-display rehearsal for the market with my table in the back room.

The Northside Makers Committee have been hard at work with advertisements in the local paper and in Mixtape, but we **really** need you to spread the word around. So even if you take a copy of the pamphlet above and email it around to your friends, that would be a great help.

There are some exciting things happening this time at the March market, including a musician! Excitement! So hopefully you will be able to make it, or if not help us spam Melbourne with Northside pamphlets!

Pouches on Etsy

I am trying to upload at least two items a day to my etsy shop. I have lots of things left over from the Northcote Kris Kringle Night Market that Jellibat and I did leading upto Christmas. Angelica does the most gorgeous soft toys! It took me three weeks to make the sign! Every night of the market I would sit there and sew the letters on - sad huh? Black Velvet piece of fabric and letters in felt which are then applied with double sided interfacing and then I stitched around each letter to give it a "sewn" look.

Anyway, I have uploaded some of my cute little pouches onto etsy ... the Ume Komachi Pouch with a black velvet back and a green spotted interior.

Japanese "crests" fabric inspired by the crests on the roofs of medieval japanese buildings. I love this fabric!

I am trying to think of another creative thing to make with the crests fabric ...
