Thread Den Market

It was difficult yesterday sitting in the cold at the Thread Den North Melbourne market yesterday. It may of been cold, but the company and customers were warm and friendly, so that made up for it.

My regular readers may recall that I have participated in two Thread Den markets before this. The last one was a disaster, I was located near a door. I felt like I was constantly giving directions to people, also people couldn't stop to look at my goodies. They kept having to move because of people coming through the door. So this time I moved up the corridor. This time it was more of a success. So I guess the old saying, "location, location, location", is true to it's name.

This market was the launch of the new packaging, the revamped suburban notepads and even a new stand! Overall I was happy, but please miss can it be warmer next time?

Thread Den North Melbourne Market

I will be sharing a table with the lovely Kelli this Sunday at the North Melbourne Thread Den Market, so come and say hello! :-)

Into the Den I walk......

It's been a very muggy day here in Melbourne, but I thought I would venture out to North Melbourne to pay for my stall for the first Thread Den Market for 2010.

Paying was easy at the very cute Thread Dean, it was trying not to buy anything, that was the challenge. I assumed wrong, I thought, it's during the day, it will be quiet. I was wrong, Thread Den was busy with the sound of sewing machines with many wannabe sewers taking a basic course in sewing. I have heard about these courses, I might look into these later this year. Seeing it is a goal in life to be able to sew properly with confidence.

My location at the Thread Den Market will be in the Ballroom, sounds very grand. So looking forward to it, but the sad thing is, I wont have my craft market buddy Little Cooties sitting next to me.
