Stitch Rock, SoFla's largest indie craft fair, comes to Delray Beach on Saturday Posted: 05 Oct 2012 06:38 AM PDT Skip the mall. Score unique, funky handmade fashions and home decor at Stitch Rock, South Florida's largest indie bazaar at Old School Square in Delray Beach on Saturday. The annual craft fair, from noon to 6 p.m. in the gymnasium, has more than 80 vendors selling one-of-a-kind jewelry, upcycled clothing, housewares, and natural and vegan bath & body goods and more. "It's like a pop-up Etsy shop," says founder Amanda Linton, 33, of West Palm Beach. "We fill the entire Old School Square gym and have tents outside, too." Linton, a third generation crafter who also owns Ink & Pistons, a tattoo shop, art gallery and boutique in West Palm Beach, created the bazaar in 2007. Since then, she says it's doubled in size. "I wanted to provide a place where people could buy the best handmade items made right here in South Florida. I like to buy cool, quirky items, and I was shocked that there wasn't any kind of venue that offered a way to purchase that kind of stuff. "It's evolved into a great community of crafters and supporters who search out handmade goods made locally in their community, instead of spending money on mass produced items made overseas." Highlights include a 3 p.m. fashion show, raffles and door prizes. Plus, the first 100 to arrive get a swag bag filled with goodies. "Our crafters in the show donate fun items for the gift gabs, from pins to hairclips to jewelry, magnets, stickers." Also available for purchase are yummies from gourmet food truck BC Tacos and treats from Sugar Mamma Sweets in Lake Worth. "Come check out some of the uncommon handmade goods," Linton says. "It's a really fun event. People look forward to all year." Stitch Rock is at noon-6 p.m. Satruday in the Old School Square Vintage Gymnasium at 51 N. Swinton Ave., Delray Beach, 561-635-8086 RocktheStitch.com. or Tickets are $5 and parking is free until 4 p.m. Photo courtesy of Stitch Rock.
