Marvellous Mathilda's Market

Firstly we, at Miss Chief Designs would like to thank the Mathilda's Market organisers. We had such a wonderful day, although the early start was a bit rough, but we had a wonderful time getting to know all the stall holders. Next to us was Pinnigan, with their beautiful soft dolls.We were also across the room from an old favorite, Small Print. Sonia had her hubby working hard for the day, as they also had a stall in Eastlands. Once we stopped gossiping, we realised we forgot the camera, both mobile phones and our change for the float... With all the dramas out of the way, 9am brought the massive crowds!We were flat out all day and nearly sold out of 'little miss' bags, so look out for lots of very important little girls out there carrying their beautiful bags.
We received fantastic feedback. Alex, who runs a business in Sandy Bay, Forget Me Not, asked if we would like to stock our products in her shop! We also had another gentleman who grabbed a business card and our phone number and said he was also interested in stocking our products. so we were very chuffed by this stage!
I managed to sneak away and buy myself some goodies. I brought Little Middy some Huggalugs and a green nappy pack from Green Kids, Holly from Green Kids was fantastic, I normally wouldn't even consider green nappies for Little Middy, but Holly explained to me all the benefits and I was sold! (BTW they are fantastic!). Middy in her skirt mummy made and her beautiful Huggalugs

I had a first birthday party to go to on Sunday, so I wandered over to the lovely Ruby Victrola Letter Press and purchased a beautiful card for my little cousin.
Now that I had shopped for everyone else, I figured I deserved something.... I have always admired and followed Notions blog, so that was my first (and last stop). I spoilt myself with a beautiful bird brooch, which I have worn everyday to work and it looks stunning. So thank you Rosie.
At 1pm, we went home with massive smiles on our faces and very thick wallets, with promises of doing the next Mathilda's Market! BRING ON JULY!

Dodges Ferry Market

Arh, the joys of having a market in your home town. Dodges Ferry is such a vibrant sensational place to be and the locals are fabulous! (yes, that includes you Mum!). I am still in the process of conning Mr. H, to move back down there. I have got him as far as Midway Point.

Anyway, Back to the market.
We met some very lovely stall holders at the Market on Sunday. and one of Miss Chief's favs traveled down for the day, The Bomb Squad, we LOVE these girls and their products

.

We also met one very lucky woman, she was admiring some of our bags, and about an hour later her hubby rushed back down and brought it for her, as a lovely surprise! yes we agree, we need to clone men like this!

My beautiful cousins and their bubby's (although one is still in the warm, safe place, of, Mrs A's tummy) came down to support and visit us. It was so nice to see them and they left with some lovely pieces.

The last Dodges Ferry Market (until Summer) is on the 4th of April, we would love for you to come along and have a look. You wont be disappointed.

And last but not least, a beautiful photo of Little Middy, wearing her new top, designed by mummy. xx

The Barn Market

Wow! what a beautiful market.
We had so much fun, met so many lovely stall holders and visitors. It's so hard not to spend all your money on the other gorgeous products.. we did spoil ourselves a little, we brought yummy bath bombs from the Bomb Squad. I also couldn't go past a beautiful growth chart for Middy, from Jasmin Rose.
As you can see, we all had so much fun with the photo booth, which was free at the market and such a great personal touch.
Our next market is on March the 7th and Dodges Ferry, so we will be busy sewing, sewing, sewing - especially Tracey, as we have nearly sold out of bags.
So watch this space for new stunning bag designs.
