2024 Holiday Market

It’s been so long since I last posted, that I wasn’t sure that I’d remember how!

I will be participating in a small market on December 7 at One Yoga Victoria – click the link or see the information below:

ONE YOGA HOLIDAY MARKET

One Yoga Victoria – 239 Menzies Street, Victoria, BC

If you’ll be in Victoria I’d love to see you!  It sounds like there will be an interesting variety of vendors.  My table will be filled (hopefully!) with needle felted ornaments, some 3D felted creations, and jewellery – sterling silver, brass and copper with some semi-precious stones.

On a different note, the Beehive Woolshop will be posting their winter class schedule in a few weeks. I’ll be teaching a fairy house, a cactus and a sleeping fox. If you’ve been wanting to learn to needle felt, keep an eye on the Beehive website or contact me directly.

Take care!

Upcoming Fibre Market

It’s almost time for the fall Island Knits Yarn and Fibre Market – yay!  I’m happy to be participating again – it’s such a lovely day of talented makers and gorgeous colours and textures.  I should also mention the incredibly yummy food available from the vendor restaurants at the Victoria Public Market.

I’d love to see you on November 10th!

I’m pickin’ up good Fibrations

You’re probably thinking “boy is she bad at spelling – she’s made a spelling error in the title.”  Nope – it’s correct.  Have you heard of Fibrations?  It’s a yearly community-based celebration of fibre, and this year I’m going to be part of the market – yikes!  It’s a bit terrifying as it is a larger market than any I’ve done before, and I have will have much more space than my usual 3×6 table.  I’ve vowed to myself that I’m not going to leave everything until the last minute (like I usually do), and I’ve already started working on some jewellery and wet felting.  Fingers crossed I can keep it up or I will be one stressed Dee in August!

Here are the details:

Fibrations 2018

When: Sunday, August 19, 2018, from 10-4

Where: The Fairfield Gonzales Community Place, 1330 Fairfield Road, Victoria, BC

Ryan and Stephanie, owners of Knotty By Nature, are the organizers of the event.  To help keep costs low for the artists/vendors, they organize a fundraising raffle – the vendors all contribute handmade items, fibre, yarns or tools to be raffled.

On the day of the event you can buy your raffle tickets at the raffle table for $2 each.  With your ticket(s) you get to choose which prize(s) you might win.  There is a strong fibre arts community in Victoria, and it definitely shows in the potential prizes.

You can find the Fibrations website here, and I’m quite sure you’ll be hearing a lot more about this market from me.

Here’s a picture of me and the neighbour cat – he visited while I was wet felting – we had quite the conversation!
