The result of a month and a half of sewing = packed scrap basket.

Here are a few photos that I took from the show.
Setting up the hall on Friday afternoon. (Note the beautiful handmade pinwheels!)
My table! From tea cozy's to cake pillows, I had a little bit of everything.
PD and I found this little shelf on the discount rack at Home Sense. It had seen better days, but some wood glue, clamps, and a coat of paint helped it out quite a bit. It came in handy to showcase my handmade bowties and pincushions.
The Flock and Gather blog has some lovely photos from the event here.
Have a lovely Sunday,

I will have a little bit of everything at the sale, from handbags, to teapot cozy's and bow-ties. Here is PD modeling a handmade bow-tie.
A nice pile of handmade goodies ready for labeling and pricing.
Because this is my first sale (of hopefully many), I was also busy designing business cards, ordering labels to sew into each piece, and building and gathering materials for display.
Everything is ready to go!
I hope you can make it out to the show, I'm excited to show everyone what I've been working on. Flock and Gather sales have a reputation for showcasing the very best in local indie craft. There is definitely something for everyone!
See you at the market!

Cutting out the fabric - my basket is more wide than the original pattern.

After our honeymoon in Banff, we took a trip to Ikea to stock up on housewares and buy a dinning room table. I was also planning on getting some table linens but wasn't thrilled with the selection. So I sewed a improvised patchwork table runner for our table using some scraps from my stash.
I also covered the dinning room cushions with a nice bold geometric cotton.

I spent many hours sorting craft supplies and hulling irrelevant and outdated materials, and sorting buttons. Lots and lots of buttons.
There is lots of organized storage!
And lots of sunlight!
Lots of room to work
Lots of room for sewing!
And lots of new fabric to work with.
I better get to work!
