Welcome to the Savvy Sister's Blogg

Wendy (my sister) and I had this idea to create an on-line community for like-minded women (both young and old) who wanted to share knowledge, skills, ideas. Generally supporting each other in the same way neigbours would support each other in the days when you knew who lived next door or down the road!

Day by day we are building on this idea - our blog will track our journey and you are welcome to join us.

Trip to Bath

Mum and I took a trip over to Bath to meet with Kate from The Makery.  Its an amazing business with similiar aims to Savvy Sisters.  Kate and her partner moved from London and set up a workshop teaching people traditional skills such as sewing, knitting and crochet etc.  Their workshop was so successful that they have expanded to a shop in Bath city centre.  I'm hoping to take my felting workshop to them and possible make mobile phone/purses with their customers. The Makery link

Taunton Show is looming and I've been preparing our kits - my question is how many??  So far I've sold 4 at our first workshop and 2 on Amazon, not many I know but what if it suddenly takes off?  Questions, questions.  Also, how should I prepare our stand?  Gosh, I just didn't think a craft show would cause such dilemmas.  I really hope that it is a success.
