The event is taking place on Sunday 10 August from 11am - 5pm and the craft market will be located just off North Meadow Walk (for a handy map click <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&amp;hl=en&amp;msa=0&amp;msid=113408628111704899928.000453a88466622c6a2ff&amp;ll=55.941558,-3.197783&amp;spn=0.009902,0.023088&amp;z=16">here</a>) I will be sharing the stall with fellow Edinburgh illustrator <a href="http://www.lauriehastings.com/">Laurie Hastings</a> and we will have a whole host of beautiful handmade goods on display: from bags and books, to prints and postcards and even hand screenprinted luggage labels! So come to the Meadows and enjoy some sunshine (hopefully), watch some comedy, listening to some music, soak up the atmosphere and of course visit Alice and Laurie and their lovely stall! </span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lcl1VV7ZZWI/SJgY0DU5uhI/AAAAAAAAAFQ/5h17DIhJrsk/s1600-h/trunk.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lcl1VV7ZZWI/SJgY0DU5uhI/AAAAAAAAAFQ/5h17DIhJrsk/s320/trunk.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5230958249716070930" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1213204040600866037-792031121235438919?l=edinburgh-cats.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alice Melvinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01954614833804379655noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1213204040600866037.post-19525433167600707442008-07-10T03:50:00.000-07:002008-07-10T03:55:05.930-07:00<span style="font-size:85%;">I've created a map to show the location of cats I've had responses from to date.

I have created this blog to keep everyone who has kindly got involved updated about the project. I'd like to start by saying a big thank you to everyone who has emailed me information on their cats, I have loved getting your emails - there are certainly some very entertaining Edinburgh cats out there! One other thing, this is my first experience as a blogger so apologies in advance for any teething errors!</span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1213204040600866037-1590668018675259453?l=edinburgh-cats.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alice Melvinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01954614833804379655noreply@blogger.com0
