Do you remember when I was contemplating taking part in the
Stitches and Craft Show? I did a lot of thinking about it and decided in the end it was too risky for a first time market experience. This year I plan to be a buyer and maybe then a seller in 2011.

Instead, I'm joining forces with the fabulous Fiona of
Hop Skip Jump and will be presenting myself and my toys at the next Bowerbird Bazaar, held in Adelaide this March. I am very excited to be sharing a stand with Fiona, whom I have long suspected was separated from me at birth. See
here for further explanation. A big hello and welcome if you have popped over from the other Fiona's blog.
The
Bowerbird Bazaar is a relatively new design market, held for the first time in Adelaide last October (2009). It is the brain child of 2 local business women, Jane Barwick of
In-Sync Design and Rebekah Cichero, of
One Small Room. For pics of last years event see

So what this has done is make me into a mad crazy deadline driven sewing mama. Go Go Go!
If you are local then you really must mark this in your diary. Come and say hi!

It has also motivated me to attend to an item that has been on my to-do list for at least 12 months. A sewing tutorial to make a fede baby hammer rattle. I will be making them available for the first time at the market in the form of a sewing kit, with cut fabric included. All going well I hope to then make a PDF tutorial/ebook that can be purchased online. Here's a sneaky peek.....
