On the Ridge Craft Fair Artisans

 For about 20 years, the Ethel Wilson Women’s group of Cordova Bay United Church has sponsored the On the Ridge Christmas Craft Fair.  This year we are unable to gather in person due to Covid 19.  Our many crafters have supported us through the years and we would like to offer them support in promoting their talents.

As we can’t meet in person, we have made it easy for you to connect and order directly from our 2021 vendors.  Below you will find a graphic, a description and contact information to the On the Ridge Craft Fair artisans.  We hope you will support our skilled artists through on-line shopping for well-crafted products.

Scroll down to browse through the vendors’ information on how to contact them.  Any sales transactions will be directly between the buyer and the vendor; Cordova Bay United Church will not be involved in the on-line sales.

Thank you for visiting our site. We sincerely hope you enjoy the talents of our many On the Ridge Craft Fair talented crafters.

Designs by Birgitte  -  Birgitte Maegher

I especially like to work with natural fibres such as mohair and wool in monochromatic colours weaving shawls, blankets and fabric for jackets etc. I make knitted jackets, scarves and toques and  also  jackets with woven bodies and knitted sleeves. Christmas comes at the dark and dreary time of the year, and I, as many, feel a great need to decorate and brighten my home. I embroider red hearts with angels, Santa’s (Nisser), stars, flags etc. and hang them around the house.
