After a late night, an early start and a long drive, we got to Long Melford this morning to be welcomed by Dee and set up our craft stall in The Old School.
It was a lovely friendly atmosphere and we felt privileged to meet lots of fellow Artisans - all dedicated to producing high quality products which showed their real love for what they do. If you're reading this then do keep in touch...
A blue-grey coat of paint worked a treat to unify the display too - and helped to pull together the overall look.
The dresses and pinafores looked gorgeous - and proved irresistible for a few customers...so thank you for showing your appreciation of locally handmade creativity and craft.
New for this fair - fresh striped draw string bags were popular - embellished by Annie's whippet and terrier designs
The trellis Helen had sourced looked fantastic, adding height in a light and airy way to the space.
As always, meeting and chatting with people today was a big learning curve - time for reflection now - thanks to lots of constructive feedback.
