craft fair

Next weekend I'm doing a small craft fair with a friend here in my town. This is a take on the little tags I'm going to attach to the things I'll sell.

It's my first attempt to sell things I've made and I'm pretty nervous. What if no one wants to buy my stuff? Not that I'm expecting to make oodles of money, but I at least would like to hear some positive feedback. Cross your fingers!

i'm baaaack!

Whew! That was a long and unintentional blog break. The last month has been ca-razy. Isn't it funny how life keeps moving and time keeps passing even as you're screaming "FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE, SLOW THE HECK DOWN!"

Ahem. Sorry.

I have been crafty the last few days, though. I'm sharing a table with a friend at a craft fair (gulp) in one week, and I'm making these to sell...

What do you think? Would you buy one? And how much would you pay? I'm also thinking I'll cut some of my vintage sheets into fat quarters and sell those. Thoughts?

I love this next one... might keep it for myself. Plus, it turns out that zippers are nearly as hard as I thought they would be.

What are they leaning against, you ask? My newly thrifted spool shelf... love it!

I have a few more things up my sleeve, but they aren't ready for public viewing yet. I'll leave you with a link to one of my new favorite sewing books. Happy Weekend!
