A Mega Week at the Shop, thank you !!!


Hey Crafting Buddies

Jan & I have enjoyed an incredible first week trading in the shop. We have met many many wonderful people who have been more than happy to offer thoughts, tips and friendship. Don't forget though that we are relying on you all to let us know if there is something you would like to see in the shop but can't ... except wool . Yes believe it or not we have definitely got the message there, we WILL be stocking knitting wool as soon as I get the catalogue listing through from Sirdar.


Anyway, the Crafty Laughers have now had their first Monday evening meeting at the workshop room which was a fantastic success ... any prospective new members should ask at the shop and we will put you in touch with Kay Rutter.


The raffle listing will be posted here tomorrow as suggested by Rachel and don't forget, leave me a comment if you want us to consider stocking something else.


Have a good week

YIPEE !!! - we're open for business


Hey crafting buddies !

A massive thank you to all who turned out on a Sunny Saturday afternoon this weekend to share in our excitement over the shop opening. Jan and I were completely dumb founded by the growing queue of people at only 11.45, and by the time we were letting the first customers through the door at Midday, you couldn't move in the aisles !!


We had a fabulous day, took £65 on my charity raffle and will be publishing the winners on the shop notice board by Tuesday afternoon.


Don't forget to bring those Wish List forms back soon though .... you want to start the ball rolling for worth while birthday and Christmas pressies as soon as possible.


See you in Desborough !!
