Some Good Market

February 8 is the first Some Good Market in St. John's for 2014. The Telegram wrote a piece about the market back in 2012. This market has a large variety of vendors from high end arts and craft (for example: jewellery, silk scarves, knitted goods and yarn for knitting, wool roving, wall art, pet related items, quilting and sewing), to bakery items, home made jams and other food stuff. It's well worth a visit. Valentine's Day is less than a week away and you just might find a gift for that special someone!

I will be there tomorrow with a couple of new items :

• Cord Wraps
• Valentine Art Cards
• Felted & Stitched Pendants (I have 5)

 

Cord Wraps

My latest textile creations are Cord Wraps. I use scraps of fabric in their construction. The closure is coloured velcro. I like matching the velcro to the fabric. Most shops just carry the standard black, white and sometimes taupe but I managed to find coloured velcro on my travels.

These Cord Wraps are great for organizing cords from irons, hair dryers, small appliances, cell phones, and tablets. The list is endless. Think about all the cords visible on your kitchen counter or on your desk that would benefit from Cord Wraps. Organize your life!

In keeping with the smaller items I make, they are light weight and can be easily mailed in an envelope. Plus they make great little gifts.

 Have a look!
