First to Paris. What can I say but ooohhhh (la la)! It was stunning. We managed to find a lovely little hotel away from the hustle and bustle of the centre along side a market street. The markets oozed charm and character and some of the best foods I've tasted. In fact, we pretty much ate our way around paris!
I was very restrained in my fabric purchases, but the choice was fantastic. There are so many lovely fabric shops in Montmartre it made me a bit giddy!
Yesterday I was helped by the whole family at the Sharrow Vale Road market, a place close to my heart after spending much of my student days here. The rain held off for pretty much most of the afternoon, apart from 5 minutes from the end! Still, with my trusty little helpers we managed to get everything away in record time and only had to dry out a couple of things at home!
So, I am now putting my energies into the next fair - Mary's marvellous vintage and craft market on Bramall Lane, Saturday 5th May. I love this fair. There is so much variety. All the money made from it goes back into the community which is just great.
Well, I didn't mean to ramble on for so long, so sorry!! Better get crafting.
Catch you soon x x
