Hand Made Now!
I haven’t posted about our monthly stall at the Neighbour Goods Market for a while, so this is going to be a biggie.
It was an interesting market, because there were loads of international visitors, probably here because of the Design Indaba and Expo. Lots of Dutch and American visitors, some from Hong Kong, and others I’m sure we missed. Good responses to our work, which was encouraging.
Our stall looked very “together” this time, partly thanks to…
… the new addition to our stall: Liesel Trautman and her beautiful ceramics. Check them out below.
Liesel has recently opened her own shop and workshop in Lower Main Road, Observatory. We hope she’ll be back every month.Apart from that… …my trays and Jesse’s brilliant crochet badges (wish I’d taken a better pic of these)……my little purses, made from bits of misprinted teatowel fabric….
… a new baby t-shirt design…
… lots of new badges from Jesse and me…
… and Jesse’s lovely knitted vase covers. Lots more I didn’t snap, like Jesse’s dolls and all my t-shirts, but I was getting in the way of the shopping hungry crowds!The market’s great fun. What a good way to make my studio rent each month.

Hi,
unfortunately I would have to fly aborad an airplane quite a bit to visit your stall… 🙁 (We are living in Germany!)
Is there any chance to buy your goods as well as the ceramics from Liesel Trautmann online? Or can I contact both of you by email? Please let me know at dvfoerderreuther@web.de
Thanks, Valerie

Do you print your fabrics yourself? How do you do?
Heather Moore
Hi S a r a h
Yes, the fabrics are my design. I made a large batch of teatowels, which I had screenprinted by a friendly guy down the road. Some of the prints were less than perfect, so those I’ve been using to make purses.
Cheers
Heather
