I'm happy to say that my craft shows for the year are complete -- phew!! This past weekend's show was grueling and the weather today was bleh! Sales were 1/2 what they were last year and this is the show's second year. Could be that there were twice as many vendors as last year and that spread the money around a bit more. Not sure. I sold all eight of the brimmed hats I felted at my Mom's last Wednesday. I definitely need to focus on making more of those next year. I'm disappointed that I only sold one of my woven scarves. I thought for sure those would go over well at this show, where a lot of well-to-do shoppers strolled around. Hmm......
I had bought three new tablecloths and the cut-out ornaments to make the booth look uniform and festive. You can see my 'hot seat' in the back -- that heated throw from Costco and the Presto radiant heat dish served me well as I doubt anyone else at the show was as comfortable as I was.
I'm looking forward to my day off of work tomorrow. Funny thing is, it's my roommate's first day on his new job. I hope everything goes well for him. I'm sure he'll have a lot to tell me tomorrow evening.

I love your hats! I can see why they were scooped up. The scarves are pretty wonderful too.
Thanks Courtney! I'll be ordering more of that Berroco Ultra Alpaca yarn that I use for the felted hats, so I can get cranking on them earlier next year!!
