Hi. This weekend we returned to the markets. Winter is behind us and the long daylight hours keep us outdoors.  From early in the morning until around 2pm, you will find us in our regular spots. We met up with regular market goers yesterday at Deloraine market and Evandale market today. We've also met some wonderful new customers too.

 C'est moi, Genevieve. I'm modelling a tunic-style top made from silk lengths using colour blocking. I'll share more about that top soon. I have another one I've started to cut out.
 This is how we display fabric lengths at our stall. They look gorgeous fluttering in a breeze. The amazing backdrop is an old Boy's Day flag. It is hand-painted and was made in the 1950s.
We have several unused Japanese fabrics for sale too.

Some of our table runners made from silk obis.

This is a boy's kimono on display. We sell kimono we have not yet unpicked. Most people buy them for displaying as a wall feature. We also sell girl's kimono and kimono for adults.

After we have finished setting up our stall in the morning (it takes us about 1 1/2 hours for a complete set up, at a relaxed Sunday morning pace), I go and find breakfast then have a walk around to see what's around.
Check out Noel's beautiful irises for sale. Noel was shy and hid from the camera. Noel runs Bonnie Banks Iris & Perennial Nursery & Gardens, just out of Launceston.
