I had another good weekend at the fourth Loughborough Town Hall SOCK! Artists & Makers Fair at the end of March. It was a lovely sunny weekend, so a bit of a shame to spend quite that much time indoors, but on the upside it brought lots of people out.
As usual there were plenty of talented artists showing and selling their work over the weekend and on the Sunday the Town Hall had a free printing workshop during the day for children to come along and try out.
I have a few OddSox stall pics, not the greatest as the light wasn’t too good in the hall, but at least it’s a record of the day.
There was also a board with cards to leave comments and feedback…
And most exciting of all for me was this huge billboard on one of the main roads leading into the town centre with an image of one of my sock creatures on it. Look at the beautiful blue sky too!
I also acquired a rather lovely textile bird brooch from a fellow stallholder called Rachel Ainley – we actually did a ‘swap’ which is always fun. Here’s a pic from Rachel’s website showing a whole collection of her delightful birds, just click the pic to visit her site, she has lots of other goodies on offer too.
Thanks for looking and have a great Easter everyone












That billboard is awesome!! So are your creatures. I’ve got to get back to making some. I keep buying books about making them instead of actually doing it.
Wish I could visit the other side of the ocean so I could meet your creatures in person. Someday!
