fabric and Greenwich market delights

So I have 'done' several weeks at Greenwich Market. I have learnt lots, met lots of people, and humped lots of bolts of fabric back and forth from my house to my car to the market and back (My back can vouch for that!)
At Greenwich there are many stall selling many things, as well as some great shops , I adore the bow maker, my absolute favourite stall there.

 Some of my fabric all laid out ready to cut
 Some of my new fabric, the birds has sold very well. While my favourite is the pointy hat lady riding the elephant.




 And here i am making a sale. The picture was taken by Lorna, who makes her own clothes. I need to take some pictures of them next time.
After discovering that Lorna already has lesson at Greenwich we have got together, she is really talented and does some great lesson and get togethers in the heart of greenwich. Check out her website and if you can come to one of her classes. I am going to go, as i really need to improve my dressmaking and want to become confident with those scary things called button holes and zips!

    Markets are one of my favourite things - I'm so envious that you get to spend so much time there. Sounds like your stall is a real success - well done, you must be really proud. Let us know how your sewing lessons go, I'm sure you'll be great, you've already made some lovely clothes without the lessons!
