Well, the worst did happen.
On Friday we went to Ormskirk Market again – this time it was a complete
washout. Although we were much more
expert at setting up the cover over the stall, but to no avail – the rain came
down in torrents and the cover was of no use at all. After less than an hour and a half, during
which the weather continued to
deteriorate, we were in danger of
getting all the ‘stuff’ soaked, so we decided to call it a day – we were both
soaked through to our underwear. It was
really disappointing for the Chapel Gallery staff who had worked so hard under
such difficult circumstances and we were so sorry for them.
Today we have been to a Craft Fair in Ainsdale; it coincided
with Ainsdale Horticultural Show, and we though that might add to the footfall. Unfortunately, because the weather was so good, most people
went to the outdoor event and didn’t come indoors at all! We can’t win However, we enjoyed our day and I sold 3
prints, more than I usually sell in one go.
It was nice to meet up again with Margaret from the Soap Corner and
Nicola from Good Girl Designs who had some lovely new brooches and some really
unusual mats.
During the week I’ve been quite productive – half a dozen lavender bags, the promised felted iPod case, a couple of scarves and some more heart-shaped brooches. No bad eh?
