Too busy to blog

I'm sorry!

I've rejected my blog for a good few weeks/months, and I know I deserve a slap on the wrist for it. But I have been busy - just so busy that I've not had the time to blog or take photos of all my hard work.

I've booked myself in for 2 craft fayres which are happening within a week of each other. The first is a local hospital fayre, they're expecting around 45 stalls and weather permitting should have a rather good turn out.

The second is the Gorleston Clifftop Festival - a yearly event which sees a good few thousand people flock to the small seaside town for a weekend of music, crafts and entertainment. I'm in the craft arena along with 15 or so other stalls.

I find that as it's creeping up on me I'm getting more and more nervous. Firstly due to these being my first actual craft fayres - I've sold at car boots and online, but this is like the daddy of sales, and secondly because I'm still new to this, I've not been sewing or making things for very long and as they're all things I've made i find that I'm very critical and really don't know if they'll appeal to the masses or if people will think they're well made. You see so many crafts out there which are perfect and beautiful and pristine, my stuff isn't - which is probably the appeal of it really, but i do find myself comparing it to these intricate things people have spent days and days trawling over and crafting and planning, mine come together in a few hours.

I suppose the most I'm hoping for is to gain my pitch money back, anything on top of that will be a bonus and will be heading straight to the wedding pot.

Wish me luck
