Sunday 8 April 2018

Hello everyone and welcome to our first blog post of 2018. 

Our crafters have had a bit of a break since our last market day in December so now that their batteries are fully recharged we are pleased to announce that our first craft market of 2018 will be on Sunday 8 April in Cramlington Masonic Hall.

It seems that some of you have had difficulty in finding us in the Masonic Hall so I will give you directions at the end of this post.  For some reason a google search brings up the Masonic Hall in Shiremoor - not very good - and I have had to remove the map from our Facebook page for that reason.

So, what can you expect on 8 April? 

Well our first news is that Sue from Rainbow Cakes and Bakes has put on her pinny is pre-heating the oven so she can be back with us after a well earned sabbatical.  Sue makes delicious cakes, scones and pies which are all gluten free.  So if you, or anyone you know, is gluten free then do come along and see what she has on offer.  They are all handmade and reasonably priced.  Her philosophy is that just because they are gluten free then they shouldn't be any more expensive than non-gluten free food.


Guest Crafters

We also have four "guest" crafters joining us for the first time - if they like us they have the option to join our group and do regular market days with us - so do come along and give them a warm welcome.

Carol of  Collingwood Glass Art will be doing her very first craft market ever on 8 April. 



Margaret of  Jewellery by Marge will also be with us to do her first craft market.



We also have Adele of  Stitch 2 Craft joining us for the first time.



And last but not least we have Nicola of  Fuzz Bombs doing her first market day with us.




Other Crafters

 Mr Tom of TC Crafts will be there with a selection of tote bags, lavender bags and hand decorated boxes.

Elizabeth of Craftee Thoughts.  Elizabeth crochets baby clothes, hats, jumpers and cardigans for older children and a variety of other items too. 



Kim from KSY Crafts .  Kim is well known for her sea glass products, as well as wooden items, and hand painted or decopatched ceramics and glass. 



Angela from AyVee Jewellery Design .  Angela handmakes all her own jewellery, including crystal healing jewellery.  She also has a selection of crystals and is a qualified Reiki practitioner.

Kids' Crafting

As always we will have a table dedicated to kids' crafting.  We charge £1 per item per child for this and the proceeds go to Guide Dogs.  So the kids have fun whilst fundraising for a very worthwhile cause.

Guide Dogs 

Mike and Sheryl will be back with us again with a range of Guide Dogs merchandise - and of course the ever popular Guide Dog tombola.  Do come along and show them your support.


Directions to Cramlington Masonic Hall

By car:  turn into Cramlington Village from Low Main Place/Dudley Lane at John the Clerk of Cramlington.  Follow the road through the village, passing The Plough as the road curves left.  Turn left at the end of The Plough and then first right.  You will see the car park on your left (at the rear of the Masonic Hall)  You can access the front entrance by walking down the left side of the building from the car park.

On foot:  walk along Blagdon Terrace (the main street in the village) until you come to the Blagdon Arms.  At the end of the Blagdon Arms turn onto Middle Farm Court (previously this was all cycle track).  Continue walking straight along Middle Farm Court for about 100 yds and the Masonic Hall is on your right.

There is ramp access at the front entrance for those who might need it.


See you all on 8 April!
