Big Top Jamboree

So last night was the most eagerly anticipated event of the crafting year in this fair city of Dundee (I like to big things up) and it certainly didn't disappoint. Drouthy's basement was transformed into a crafty creative wonderland with events kicking off from 2pm. There were workshops in corsage making by Paleface, Lauren Gentry took charge of the zine making and Nikki McWilliams made a fair few badges with the eager beavers ready to create at her workshop. A Cut Click exhibition ran all day long in the workshop spaces which was fantastic (and very beautifully displayed thanks to four early helpers including me, ha ha). What else.... there were balloons, projections, some live music, more importantly lots of cakes and I think a few beers were had by all the lovely shoppers who came along to support Dundee's creative community.

My Camera battery died pretty much immediately on arrival so I have had to beg, steal and borrow photographs from Joanna Montgomery (check out her blog here), she managed to get some great shots in just in time before all the shoppers arrived - just as well because believe me it was so busy you couldn't dream of going anywhere fast.

So all in all a fantastic and I think profitable night was had by all, I of course had to satisfy my desire to spend some cash and bought some truly lovely lambswool cushions by Hilary Grant which have pride of place in my living room already, photo will follow shortly. So a HUGE HUGE thanks from me (and I'm sure everyone else who took part) goes to Jen, Nikki and Lauren who did a fantastic job of co-ordinating it all, here's to the next one...........
