We are looking forward to one of our favourite fairs next month. The Homespun Fair in Portscatho, Cornwall takes place just three times a year which makes it even more special as there is a degree of anticipation as you know everyone has been looking forward to this lovely event.
I have been gathering quirky French ceramics... as well as vintage towelling fabric from the 1950s and 1960s.....
Vintage tea towels with a seaside theme...
The fair takes place on Sunday the 4th of August and the doors open at 10 am and the fair ends at 3 pm, we look forward to seeing you there!

Dear Washerwoman,
I am currently organizing a vintage event called 'The Petticoat Fair' for WellChild, and wondered if you might be interested in taking a stall?
It is taking place at the lovely Tithe Barn on the 1st september, and will have upcycling, hair and beauty and fascinator making workshops running throughout the day, retro entertainment and stalls comprising of vintage textiles, clothing, accessories, homewares and more inspired by the 40's and 50's. The first 200 guests also get a fabulous goodybag!
The stalls will be £40 each, or you can take a double stall for £60. The event was a sellout last year, and it would be great if you could join us this year!
For more information please visit:

or call 0845 458 8171. To book a stall, you can email me on jessakino@wellchild.org.uk and I will send you a booking form.
I hope this is of interest!
Kindest regards,
Jess
Gosh that printed towelling brings back memories.My Mum made me a sort of beach jacket in one of those patterns. It served me as a towel & cover-up for our first trip to Spain in 1958!

I know we all have to make a living but I'd find it hard to part with some of your finds, those French cups and saucers for a start...
Thank you Jane, looking forward to seeing you on Sunday!!! x
