Puckeridge Arts and Craft Fair

I attended the Puckeridge Arts, Craft and Gift Fair on Saturday which was hosted by the lovely Victoria of Butterfly Crafts These cakes were are great success selling out before the end of the day. They looked lovely but unfortunately I could not eat any due to my gluten intolerance
 
Although it threatened to rain the weather prevailed, which meant we saw a steady flow of customers coming through the door. It was a good day for me, as my Rose Glen collection was very well received with one customer likening the quality of my work to that of Whites, accolade indeed.
Over the past weeks I had created some new items to take to the fair, these proved to be successful with the customers, and I received several enquires for custom orders. This Maxi dress was ordered from someone going on a cruise, and the Summer Shift Dress was order in a smaller size, one of my favourites in the collection. This Green Ruffle skirt was also a favourite, wowing a lot of the customers. This will soon be available in my Rose Glen Store
Next weekend I am in Wells-next-the-sea on the north Norfolk coast, isn't this just a cool name. I booked this fair because I liked the look of the area, you must admit it looks really pretty, I can't wait to get there. The fair is over two days, so I am going to book into the local youth hostel to save on cost, first time I have even booked into a youth hostel.
Mark this spot, I will be back to update you on my venture on Well-next-the-sea next week
