Craft show

I've been so focused on the Mega fun fair that is coming up in Sept at Harry's school that I totally disregarded the fact I have a craft show in Oatley in August. Ahh. Only 3 weeks to go and tonight I had to supply an inventory of all the stock I will provide. Good question - how much can I get done in three weeks. Had to sit down and imagine squeezing sewing in at ridiculous times of the night. I was very ambitious at first and wrote down large numbers of stock. After sewing some things last night, the numbers have been reduced dramatically!


A few people have asked if I will be selling my new fabric design. The answer is yes, after I have sorted out how much I need for the markets. If you are interested in some and haven't already emailed me, please do so. I'll let you know before I post it up in the shop.

sewing with a deadline...i don't know if that would be good or bad for me! it must be hard to determine how much you will get done...
can't wait to hear about the new fabric, and I haven't forgotten the ribbon!

I have been there before! I offer you my empathy + remember to breathe + not stress. It's supposed to be fun!

Deadlines are icky creatures - but they can inspire some great work. Good luck!

Hi!
Yes, working with a deadline is very stressing but sometimes it's when good ideas come up... By these times we usually promise ourselves that we'll never do the things this way again... but, well, I never learn with some mistakes...
good work and I'm pretty sure that you'll have everything ready when time is to come.
