Since retiring I have enjoyed expanding my love of sewing and crafting with an emphasis on upcycling. I will have a variety of sewing items, silk button, decoupage and upholstered stools and hopefully some from upcycled whisky barrel staves!
Sandra has worked with textiles for a number of years now and enjoys working with different fabrics. She loves choosing contrasting fabrics to create unique children’s wear and accessories. Sandra makes a range of items including embroidery and personalisation. Commissions are welcome.

Sadie started ‘dot painting’ 2 years ago, finding it therapeutic and very addictive (especially Mandala designs). Using bright acrylic paints, a wide variety of art is available. Small gifts such as bookmarks/keyrings to stonecast tealights and canvas paintings, something for everyone.
The natural environment is my main source of inspiration. After my family , it is my passion,its shapes,colours and its movements. Clay is the main material that I manipulate to create natural forms.
At my home bench in Witherslack, each La’al Treasure is handmade from recycled silver, brass or copper. Inspired by daily dog walks, nature and shiny things, every piece captures organic forms and Lake District moments – crafted with love and the occasional swearing.
Venue:
Hazelwood Hall Pavilion
I make and decorate earthenware and stoneware pots and decorate slipcast earthenware pots. I love nature and colour and sgraffito features strongly in my makes.
Pip had her TV debut in 2025 on BBC 1’s Make It at Market. Colour plays a key role, mixing pigments into a porcelain body to achieve a kaleidoscope of joy.
I create artwork and crafts using wool and pure silk fibres. My work includes pictures of various sizes, felted cushions, lamps with felted shades. I sell my artwork in three galleries in Northumberland.
Painting is one of my joys in life. I loose myself in in them, wondering where the time has gone. I don’t restrict myself to “a style”. I love to experiment with all styles!
