Busy Easter


A busy few weeks at Cow & Ghost.
Very enjoyable Fair last weekend with Hel's Belles Boutique in Gloucester.




Blackfriars Priory is a magnificent building, and a wonderful setting for a vintage event. If you're ever in the city, it is worth going to have a look.






Since the Fair we've been busy sorting and adding to our stock,
as several events are coming up. As well as sourcing items, have put the recent sewing classes to use and made some cushions.



This beautiful Welsh tapestry blanket was in wonderful condition, aside from 4 prominent coaster sized holes, Finally felt brave enough to cut it up and it has a new lease of life.






So far 6 lovely 20 inch cushions, and quite a lot left over for future projects. These are a generous size, and have used the same blanket as backing, making use of the original fringing as much as possible.














We'll be bringing these, along with lots of new stock to our next event, which is the fair at the Clarence Hall in Crickhowell. Always an enjoyable day.
Look forward to seeing you there.

A little update...


A quiet few weeks on the blog. We haven't had an event to promote, but have been busy gathering stock for the upcoming ones. We've also enjoyed a little jaunt to London. Trip to the theatre, lots to eat and drink.... Perfect



We highly recommend 'The Play That Goes Wrong'. Laugh out loud funny from beginning to end. A satire of an old fashioned murder mystery, staged by a VERY amateur drama group. Non stop action and entertainment.


Looking forward to our next event in Gloucester. These are great fairs. Call in if you're passing
