Stall with puppets at Craft & Gift show in Brentwwod

This is a very busy show and I love to have my stall there .
this year on 2nd and 3 rd November was even busier than usual probably because my friend Emma dressed in Vintage from 20ties kept shouting HANDMADE PUPPETSSSS......WE have sets and individuals.....TODAY every 2 seconds ,was Fun and we were noticed, Thank you EMMA !!!

Best thing was that we had returning costumers and few lovely feedbacks from last years purchases and that made my day!!!!

Once again the best seller was The Croc

and I kept making crocodiles on site as I did not have time to make them earlier

We were very tired but happy at the end

Baa, Baa Black sheep

Finally I made a sheep puppet!!!! since I started to create the "Nursery rhymes in a bag" Puppets
I wanted to have ba a ,baa Black sheep set. It is one of the very popular nursery rhymes and my son's favourite as well,
was in my list but I really straggled with the design development
and 2 days ago out of nowhere I just made the sheep YES!!!! 2 designs

and then I wander which of these 2 it s more like a BLACK SHEEP

black head or white head????

I am happy with both designs but most friends suggested the black head so she is going to be in the completed set

now I am making 3 bags full

and the result is a lovely bright green mat with 1,2,3 bags FULL and a pond full of frogs (they weren't in the song ) but I loved the fabric

the set is ready and going to be listed in www.puppetsinabag.co.uk very soon
