I seem to be in the enviable position of having some "spare" time on my hands...... All the things I wanted to prepare for the market on the weekend are done. Everything is priced, tagged and packed.
So for today at least it is back to the robot pattern......
You are a machine!!!! I've never done a market before but I've read enough blog posts to know that about now you should be - panicking that you still haven't started most of your items, - have no idea about packaging and pricing and - you can't find that perfect display ladder that you ABSOLUTELY NEED OR YOU WILL DIE!!!! Hope I haven't started you panicking. Surely not!!! See you Saturday. Andi :-)
I so wish I could come to Daylesford and buy one of everything on your stall! Alas I am running Northside Makers Market that day - all we organisers are dismayed by the coinciding dates! Next time, next time.
Well if you have spare time pop over to my place - there's plenty to do here - including repacking the new sewing room. Cupboards are going in as I type. Want to come over and play??
I wish you all the best for Daylesford Market, I wish i could be there, Conngratulations on being well organised. I am sure things will go down great. By the way, Your dolls and elephants were very well recieved at K.Mart This morning. Thanks again for allowing me to use your patterns in this way.
why do you victorians have the coolest markets...hmmmmmm...wish I lived closer! love those clocks! I hope you have spare stock to sell to us non victorians!
no, seriously have a good market!!! take piccies too!
Oh those clocks are so fab Jodie! I bet they will sell super fast! But I so wish I could come and see you at your market - totally unfair that I can't!
I'm waiting for my 32hr days; when the kids finally start kindy/daycare. Those 8hr days will sure feel like so much more than the current 12+ the I try to get anything done in...
And, please please please do share how you managed to get everything done, priced, tagged and packed. I didn't know that was actually possible before market day!
Hope you have a fantastic market. I'm also hoping there's at least one little elephant left over that you may let me buy (hide her/him at the back of the table, hey....)!
Hi, I am Jodie Carleton. I started this blog in 2007 and somehow a tiny business grew from it. So now when I am not at my regular job I can be found happily making toys in my sewing room or swearing at the computer as I try and write the patterns. I am obsessed with foxes, pinnochio, Red Riding Hood and mechanical toys- actually pretty much any toys.
Say Hi if you have time, feel free to email me with any questions you have, I'm always happy to procrastinate by answering emails.
These tutorials are here for you to have a try. Please feel free to make any number of these items for your own use or gift-giving but please do not make items to sell using these instructions.

Wow you are so organised. I'd love a clock or two if there are any left over
Hope you do well at the markets! I loved Daylesford when we visited there a few years back.
That robot is too cute!
You're an amazing woman!
Are you sure you have too much spare time? Are you sure you just haven't *gasp* forgottent to do something?

Good to hear all on track for the market day!!
Ooohh...I absolutely LOVE those clocks! And can that robot be any cuter?? Good luck!

Freak. FREEEEEAK!
Must get me one of them clocks.
That will give you more time to change the toilet roll and bring out the tubing.....
Hope to get to the market to see your goodies!

Love the priorities on the poster:
Good music, contemporary design, nice cafe...!!
So does this mean that while you're in the cafe, the robots will be dancing to the good music?!
Well if you have extra time, how about coffee and cake?... especially cake!
Hope you have a sellout day at the market Jodie.
Hugs ~ Kerryanne
chick i look forward to seeing you and hopefully mum and annie!! we will be there about 9am xxx
im 17 weeks now...
Phew! Lucky you invented those clocks!! Imagine how many days you would be behind otherwise?!?!?
The problem with being ready ahead of time is that you then think of a few more things you can take along. . .
Can you please list some of your clocks in your etsy store? I live in the United States so I can't visit any of your craft markets!!!
I think clocks and robots will be flying off of your table! I'd love to attend the market!!!
I knew it! You guys have longer days down there -- it's so unfair! ;-) Looks like you're all ready -- I hope you'll share pictures!!!
Oh those clocks are so fab Jodie! I bet they will sell super fast! But I so wish I could come and see you at your market - totally unfair that I can't!

More cute stuff, you are KILLING me, Jodie!
I sure wish I had a transporter like on Star Trek. Beam me to Jodie's stall, Mr. Scott!
So Ballarat is in some sort of time warp and you get 32 hour days. Good luck for the weekend - I wish I lived closer.
Good luck at your market with all the cute stuff!
Micki
the robot is so swwet
Yoiks!!!
The Market!!!!
Why am I panicking?
Its Ziggys stall!!!!
See you there Jod xx
Those Clocks WOW! Super groovalicious. Have fun at the market.
Those clocks are amazing. I want one PRONTO!
I want to move to your time zone!
I'm waiting for my 32hr days; when the kids finally start kindy/daycare. Those 8hr days will sure feel like so much more than the current 12+ the I try to get anything done in...
