CARLYLE - The Carlyle Sports Arena will play host to the 34th annual Homespun Craft Show and Sale.  

At 8 a.m. on Sept. 17, the Royal Canadian Legion starts off festivities with a pancake breakfast at the Legion Hut, located just north of the skating rink. The craft show runs from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. that day and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sept. 18.  

Nicole Currie has been a member of the Homespun committee for many years.  

“Because of COVID-19, we couldn’t have a show for the past two years and I know the exhibitors are ecstatic to be able to showcase their creations back in Carlyle,” she told the Observer. “We have exhibitors coming from as far away as Alberta and Ontario. There have been a lot of changes in the past three years, and we are happy to showcase a number of new vendors. I am really excited about this year’s show.” 

Homespun provides everyone the opportunity to get their Christmas shopping started and completed months ahead of schedule.  

“The vendors have a wonderful selection of products,” added Currie. “Jewelry, home décor, board games, gourmet foods, pottery, art, woodworking, photography, fashion, and so much more. There should be something for everyone who is on your shopping list.” 

In conjunction with Homespun, there is also the 17th annual quilt sale to be held at the Carlyle Memorial Hall.  

“There will be dozens of beautiful quilts on display, and we have two vendors who will be putting on some quilting demonstrations throughout the weekend,” added Currie.  

Local businesses will be co-ordinating many promotions in connection with this popular event that brings many people to the Town of Carlyle.  

“The vendors love coming to Homespun and just rave about our hostesses and our small-town hospitality. Our committee is grateful to all our amazing volunteers that are required to work an event such as this. We’re looking forward to another great year,” said Currie. “See you at Homespun.”
