A Quick Round Up - Craft Fair & New Makes

Hi it's been a while since I've updated my blog so I thought I'd do a quick catch up post. Here is my stall from the craft fair I did at Stanwick Lakes on 20th September. The craft fair is being held there once a month until Christmas and Chloe's Castle will be there in November and December.

I've had quite a few new ideas and I've also ordered some new fabrics which I will post as soon as they arrive. I've been hunting for needlecord and thicker fabrics to make some pinafore dresses ready for the colder weather. They'll look lovely with thick woolly tights and a nice long sleeved top or jumper underneath. I can't wait for the to arrive!!

These are my newest makes, lots of red coming up for those little princesses for Christmas :)







This floral dress is in a lovely Clarke and Clarke fabric, perfect for Autumn.


Above is my first pinafore dress, I can't wait to make these in the cord fabrics that are on their way.

Lastly I've been experimenting with matching headbands, mainly for the Christmas dresses, but I'm thinking of doing them to match all of the dresses I make if people would like to buy a matching accessory.

What do you think.....









































Close up....



That's all for this quick round up post. Remember to visit my page for any order enquiries on Facebook here or follow us on Twitter @chloescastle

Not Too Long To Wait For The Craft Fair

<p>Today is all about preparing for the craft fair on Saturday (Stanwick Lakes 10-4) I've had lots of tips for the craft fair and one is to set up the stall at home to see what it can look like. I've also got things to price and tags to put on.

I've not posted any new items recently so here are some pictures of my latest creations. Lottie :)
