On 7-10 March 2013, the city of Vicenza is playing host to the Abilmente craft fair. Here’s a little look at what you can expect to see…

Ciao to our craft-lovin’ Italian cousins and creative peeps eager for adventure! If you’re in Vicenza on 7-10 March, 2013, you might want to take a trip to Abilmente. This four-day craft event is held in north-eastern Italy and plays host to a whole load of crafty goodness.

Abilmente takes place twice a year, in Spring and Autumn. The Spring event’s themes are cake design and paper… two of our favourite things!

There are over 1,000 courses and demonstrations to attend over the four days. Sign up to cake-decorating classes, brush up on your sewing skills, or have a nosey around work on display in the show’s exhibitions. You can also stock up on craft supplies and other handmade delights while you’re there too.

For more information on Abilmente, check out the official website.
