Coming soon: Craft Fair

I have been absent for a while in a funk about many things. My main problem is wanting to share my crafts in a fun way online (i.e. this blog), but also share with my community by organizing and attending craft fairs.
My first project is a Church craft fair at the Episcopal church of the epiphany, here in Crestview, FL, on September 8th, 2012. Any crafter is invited to join us. The cost is a flat fee $20 a space for the day.
I hope to stay busy with craft fairs and of course, crafting.
I have been busy sewing lately so I will be posting photos. Let me know what you think.

T shirt Quilt


This is a sample T-shirt quilt I made using someone's Taekwondo shirts.
I would love to get into the business of making them. This one is obviously small, only 9 shirts, and measured about 40"x45". They can be made any size.

Last week's project

I saw a pattern in Crochet magazine that I had to try right away. I'm not sure why that pattern called my name. I'm very proud of how cute it turned out. Now I have to decide what to do with it.

It was a lot easier than it looks. The hardest part is keeping track of the rows since each one is different.
My next project from that magazine is a multicolored pastel baby blanket I am making with leftover yarn. I started it a couple of days ago and hope to get done this weekend.

More Hats

    


Team colored hats. I obviously had nothing better to do that day. I'll take them to my next craft.
See you there!

Giant Orange Slippers

These slippers were fun and quick to make. I'm not sure who will wear theses bright orange, XL slippers but there they are.

They only took about a day to make.
The foot is about 11" long.

Seminoles or Gryffindor?

I used a Christmas stocking pattern, followed it sometimes, and came up with this. It was fun.
It is roughly 15" tall.
All it needs is a wire hook to hang it up.

Craft Fairs

I've got a couple of craft fairs to go to n the next couple of months so I'm trying to get ready. I think I'll concentrate on hats, scarves, and possibly prayer shawls. I might also start making cowls, I have had requests.
