Sydney Craft Show

Having dabbled in all sorts of crafts over the years, I thought it was fitting to kick off this blog with a roundup of a new craft show, Craftfest, which will be setting up camp in most capital cities. I attended the Sydney show at Olympic Park on Sunday, March 8 with two of my crafty friends, all three of us veteran consumers on the craft show circuit – we even used it a great excuse to go on a girls’ weekend to Melbourne, because there would be different exhibitors there.

This show is a new addition to the circuit, stepping into the breach left by the long-running February Stitches and Craft show at Rosehill Race Course, which had to be abandoned last year due to the outbreak of Equine Flu in NSW. Craftfest was definitely smaller than the Rosehill show, but well worth the visit.

In coming posts, I’ll cover some of the exhibitors I bought stuff from.

You can sign up to the site for free. Members get access to cool, printable craft projects and discounts on show entry and selected purchases, plus you get a free bag to store all all the loot you buy on the day.
