MORE FAIR LADIES
Cally Troup I can hardly describe Cally's stock, as every time she comes to a fair it is original and different! She is a charming artist with very original ideas and a gift for designing new and useful accessories which bring fun and colour to their owners. Cally is an expert dyer and weaver/needlewoman and creates textile adornments like plaited alice bands for hair-dressing; pencils and pens are transformed into rainbow coloured gadgets, and sometimes there are skirts of denim with wondrous new trimmings and borders. Sometimes there are lampshades, and I really have no idea what her latest widgets are, but am looking forward to her array in June at our Rag Market
