I have a stall at the Bondi Markets every Sunday. I'm hoping to one day open a baby shop in Bondi Beach, but I'm starting small by doing the markets. My plan was never to make my own products, I was just going to source original products from around the world. However, as fate would have it, the products are taking on a more "hand-made" approach. I never planned to make anything myself, I have left that up to my Mum and my Grandma. A fellow Mum from Playgroup also supplies me with some of her products and I have another lady who approached me at the stall and offered me some of her products to sell too. Well, now I want to join in the creativity! And above is one of my offerings. They are a pair of slippers for the expectant mum's hospital bag. (In case it it illegible, the embroidery says Boy? on one slipper and Girl? on the other). I get a lot of people coming to the stall and saying how much they love my products, but don't want to buy anything because they don't know the baby's gender. So the slippers are a little gimmicky offering that I thought of.
This is one of the flannelette wraps I'll be doing for the winter. Mum kept me supplied with some very pretty muslin ones for the summer, but now it is time to prepare for the cold weather.
I like to try to do some knitting whilst sitting at the stall.
And here is something I am very proud of. I whipped it up last week, a bag for my knitting.
Now, I really must get on with making some clothes for Tilly. Fortunately, we have just experienced a nice summery patch, but that cold weather is just around the corner.
