market month!

April seems to be market month around here!  I’ve been sewing every spare minute (and quite a few that weren’t really spare, and probably should have been used to do things like vacuuming or bathing children…), and have lots of lovely goodies to bring along, ready for their new homes.

This Friday and Saturday the happy nest is super-excited to be back at Niche Market.  This event is held a few times a year, with 20% of sales going to St Giles.  Yay!  It’s on at the Tramsheds, Inveresk from 4pm to 8pm on Friday and from 10am to 3pm on Saturday.

Next week on Friday evening (5pm to 9pm) is The Elizabeth Handmade Market!  (My lovely friend Christine and I run this market, not that this makes me in any way biased as to the stupendous quality of our splendid array of designers and their marvellous goodies!)  100% of stall holder’s fees and the gold coin entry donations go to Elizabeth Home in India, a girls’ school which assists young women in acquiring sewing and computing skills so that they are able to return to their home villages and support their families.  It’s going to be a great night, with lots of new faces among our lovely stall-holder team – we’d love to see you there!

And finally, on the 26th we’ll be back at Exeter for their market.  We had a lovely time there last month – looking forward to another great day!

So there’s plenty on this month to keep everyone happy – make sure you come along and say hello!
