Hi! Cambridge is my nearest city, although I live and work in north herts - I am a jewellery designer maker specialising in precious jewellery inspired by the East Anglian landscape. My website is www.wildacredesigns.co.uk

Hello all, my name is Angela and I am a felter based in Saint Neots.  I mostly make wearable pieces - shawls, jewellery and some clothing but occassionally stray into homewares when the mood takes me!

I've been thinking about a folksy shop and wonder what your experiences are? I'd also love to know if any of you have sold through local galleries and how this has worked for you.  I haven't been brave enough to pursue this yet but it is on my goals for 2013.

Looking forward to chatting with you all :-))

Hi everyone,

Am so pleased to find this group!

I live in Sawtry, near to Peterborough.

I make cloth art pixie dolls.

Am very interested in what's going on craft-wise in the county so this group is very handy!

Looking forward to getting to know you all! :-)

Hi Everyone,

I live in Balsham, Cambs and I work with crystals making pendants, hairsticks, candle holders and walking sticks. I recently opened an online shop but would like to do some local craft fairs next year.

Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year to you all :)

Hi,

I live in Norfolk too. I crochet, knit, sew and make jewellery, though crochet is really my passion. I love making blankets especially and it's great doing custom orders for people and knowing that they are getting just what they want.

I do a few small craft fairs a year but am now concentrating mainly on online selling as this seems to work best for me.

Hi,

Just joined and looking to link up with fellow makers. I can also provide laser cutting services to artists and makers as I have just bought one! So let me know if I can help - it's pretty clever and can cut a wide range of materials.

I'm also looking for good craft fairs in the area - I do live in Norfolk but Cambs is not that far away. Cheers, Sarah (Lizzytish)
