WORKING ON FALL ITEMS

 

 

Whew....what a busy week!!! Have been finishing up some orders and trying to get ready for the Fall Celebration with my Old Farmhouse Gathering team. It is going to be so much fun. I enjoy doing these celebrations so much and seeing all the great creations.

 

 

I have been working my little sewing fingers to the bone getting my products done. These are a couple things I have been working on

 

 

I will have a couple mug rugs or candle mats available for the celebration. They make great candle mats.

 

These little mini-quilts are great for fall decorating. They don't take up much room on the table or wall. That is what I am all about.....keeping things organized!


Be sure to join us for the Fall Celebration. It starts on Monday, Sept 16th. I will be posting a link on Monday for you to hop on over and visit us.

 

 Have a great day!! 



SUMMER MARKET STARTING

It is that time of year again. Can't believe it has been a year already! My local summer market season is starting this Saturday and the good old weather man says it is suppose to be sunny and 60 degrees which is unheard of for the opening day of the market. Normally it is cold and rainy and we are all sitting in our areas with coats, hats and gloves on. I sure hope he is right!

I will only have one market a week this year as the one in the nearby town is not happening this year. Last year the city said they were going to remodel the park that we used and we couldn't have the park this year and of course are they going to do that now.......NO! Too bad because that park was right by the river where all the salmon run so in July we had lots of tourist coming to fish and stopped by to see us. I did fairly well there. :(

I have a few new items I am taking this year. I need to come up with new stuff as the locals always stop by and if you have the same things they just walk by you as they already know what you have.



These bags did really well at the Christmas shows and I sold the few I had last summer so I thought I would make several different colors and see how they do.  



I did a few springs shows that weren't very good, but these really sold pretty good so I am hoping they will do good this summer.



Going to try some mug rugs also. I don't have the Alaska one's made yet, but that is my mission for next week. The tourist don't show up really good until the middle of June so I should have time. :)

My husband worked all winter to get his supply of cutting boards done as last year for the year (which includes the Christmas shows) he sold 178 cutting boards so he said he didn't want to spend all summer making boards like he did last summer. :)


My hubby does three different designs of boards. We call these "mutts" as there are several different woods in them. :)

 

 

So hopefully the season will be good. Will have a hard time topping last year as that was amazingly successful, but we will see.

GIVEAWAY FOR ANNIVERSARY

                       
Well all my faithful followers it has been one year since I started this blog and I must say it has been a wonderful experience. Was a little bumpy at first trying to figure out how all the "techy" stuff worked, but with the help of some very nice "cyber" friends it got off the ground. I am still adding and tweaking as I go, but it is fun.

So in celebration of my first anniversary I am going to do a giveaway! I have been working on making some new mug rugs for the upcoming local market season and thought maybe one of you would like one also. So I am giving this mug rug to one lucky winner.
