Apron Strings: Mingle and Make!

Sunday 26^th September 2pm-5pm, Manna Café, Cupar Rd,

Newport on Tay.

You are invited to participate in our first Mingle and Make afternoon. Come along and create your own custom made apron and become the domestic goddess you always knew you could be. If you would like to be involved there is a £10 participation fee to cover materials, refreshment and venue hire. We will also provide an assortment of precut fabric, sewing machines, ironing boards + irons, thread, needles etc, refreshments and 2 experienced onsite sewing advisors. You may also bring along your own materials to embellish and personalize your apron.

We are keen to have a mixture of sewing levels so don’t worry if you can’t sew at all - help will be on hand.

If you would like to be involved email us at thosetwodolls@gmail.com, register your interest and tell us a bit about yourself and your sewing experience (if any). Spaces are limited so if you are interested let us know as soon as you can. Payment can be made on the day either by cash or cheque.

Just googled Two Dolls and we're near the top of the list, which is quite splendid. Anyway.... we have been reflecting on our experiences of the pop up stall at the Literary Dundee Festival and lessons certainly have been learnt. The main one being communication, making sure everyone involved has all the information they need, thus avoiding embarrassing conversations later. e.g how much commission will be taken. Next time we will be more prepared and have this all out there at the outset. On a personal level I found it to be a brilliant experience because I became the woman I always aspired to be and discovered it's ok to turn into a dictator for a bit, no one will stop being your friend because of it. The experience also cemented myself and Zoe's business relationship further, with each new experience we are finding that we work really well together and I definitely feel I have finally found my ideal work partner. All things business are going very well.

Doll One is off for the summer, the school holidays are upon us and i have a small person to entertain, so there probably won't be much action in the world of blog but please remember to come back and check up on us.
