To the Selvedge Summer Fair in Highgate. A very long queue of artistic looking women and a church hall full of linen, vintage teas, bunting, lavender bags - you get the picture. Nearly flattened on the way in by a very large and noisy `lady' behind me determined on her goody bag at all costs. Once inside, well I had given the Fry Gallery picture sale top marks for middle-class pushing and shoving; that is an opinion I shall have to revise. Nothing like a large lady with an equally large chest for clearing a path. Of interest was acornandwill; Celia Lusted; rachel eardley; starch green; ellie evans, charlotte macey. After an hour of feeling jammed in a salad-spinner I gave up the struggle and headed for Highgate village and a large pot of tea in High Tea. From Highgate to Angel in Islington on the bus, getting these London buses cracked now, and to the fabulous Loop, full of wacky creatures and fabulous wools. This is one of Julie Arkell's creations, more to be found in the little book, Julie Arkll Home which Loop stock.
