Booth Pictures from Festival

I needed to display my wares differently this time out. It was my tent and any rules to what could and couldn't be hanged from the tent didn't apply. I was looking for a way to have things on display that didn't require a person to be interested enough to take the initiative of browsing a rack of clothes.

And it doesn't hurt at all to change things up each time out, or during the day for that matter.

My First Two Day Event

I'm showing at my first two day event this weekend. Packing up and leaving once we are off work this evening.

Thought I'd share a couple of the newest outfits I have.

New Bikini Design

After much prodding from others and procrastination on my part, I have completed a new design for a string bikini. I have one more thing to tweak but this is basically it (no one but me would be able to tell the tweak).

I initially didn't believe I was capable of designing one (I'm getting better about that) and looked at other patterns but they were never exactly what I wanted whether it be in terms of style of material used.

And it is completely lined. No small feat for me.

Finished the Afghan

I committed to donating my time in crocheting an afghan to a charity. They will be putting this up for auction. The pattern is from the Annie's Attic 2012 Calendar.

I just couldn't get the color to come out correctly in the first shot but, it shows the detail of the edges.

0-3 Months Dress

I'm in the process of making a few Easter dresses to sell at my showing each week. This past week I brought out my first one. It's a pretty spring green from Caron Simply Soft.

Here is the pattern I used.

Fruit Protectors

Save your fruit from bruising with these apple and banana protectors. Perfect for your family's daily lunches.


Soon to be available on Etsy!

First Craft Show/Market

I had my first real craft show this past weekend. It's at a downtown market in a nearby city, Tallahassee, FL.

The weather was not optimal by any means. We had a huge storm front approaching that didn't actually hit until after the vendors/artists had packed up. It was, however, overcast, windy and a bit chilly during the event.

Considering all that and it was the first one of the year, I was not displeased with how my sales went. I think I did just fine. I'll be back this Saturday and most of the next 39 it is open.

I'd like to make some changes to my booth presentation but that will be gradual as I can get and find better display options. But, here's a few phone pictures of this past weekend.
