I went at the beginning of the month to Ambatalia’s Sustainable Craft Fair, which was a lovely gathering of local crafters using sustainable materials in the courtyard outside the store. There were adorable hand-crafted dog jackets (which usually make my eyes cross, but these made me want a little dog for just a moment!), sweet baby clothes and lovely jewelry. Hopefully they’ll be having more Craft Fairs in future. We’ll let you know if they do…
For those of you who live in the Bay Area but haven’t been to Ambatalia in Mill Valley, go! Molly De Vries, the owner, has beautiful organic fabrics from around the world, as well as delectable Liberty prints and vintage fat quarters (not to mention gorgeous antique lace and buttons, and stunning felted dresses from Ashley Helvey).
