I know, I still haven't got used to blogging on here..... But I have been very busy with lots of exciting events.
One is the Sturminster Newton Indoor Market. We have been going for 4 months now and each month we are introducing new stall holders. In march we had 20 traders attend, and we have 30 for April and 20 for May. Unfortunatly some months we can only have hte one room so we have to reduce the numebr of traders. But it is going well. All the other traders seem happy and are booking to return. That was my biggest worry - what if traders didnt return, but there doesnt seem to be any problem with that as I have a waiting list the length of my arm! We have been trying to come up with a more catchy name for the market, so if you have any suggestions do let us know - you could win yourselves a £30 Hall and Woodhouse voucher.
Also The Exchange at Sturminster Newton have asked me to organise the stall holders for their yearly Beer festival. So I have been choosing 20 select traders for that.
AND.... Stamp N Craft in Yeovil have asked me to help them launch their new range of yarns with a 'Woolly car project'. We are trying to raise money for cancer research by knitting squares which will cover a car! Local businsses are getting involved and sponsoring squares which will give them free advertising and we are going to try do get the local TV station down on the 21st April when we create the car.... We are also working on getting Yeovil football team down to help knit squares (under careful tuition obviously!) and possibly even the firemen. We have had a few squares handed in so far, so if you would like to knit a square that would be fantastic.
I am aiming to knit 40 squares by the 21st April (2 Done so far....) so if you cannot knit it would be brilliant if you could sponsor me throught the just giving page.
