It's over ~

Hopefully now I can breathe and work on some things I really want to work on . . . but I do have a few small things I must hook.  Hook in door prize mats, a thank you gift, thinking of you gift.  Always  something, and it's about five weeks until I am vending at a hook in.  I need to inventory to see what I need to make, but I'm thinking it's not too much (fingers crossed!).

The show was good.  I did not do as well as I did at the fall show, but I didn't expect to.  I had many fewer antique items to offer.  I am not a dealer and not purchasing items to resell, nor do I plan to.  Just trying to get rid of the excess stuff I have that I never use/display.

Here are a few pictures from the booth (though you may have already seen some of them on Sue's blog).



Things that I thought would sell did not . . . and other items that sold surprised me.  About half my profits came from hooked items so I'm happy I took the time to make them.  Of course, I don't command the high dollar that more well known hookers make.  But no complaints from me.  Now I have some "fun money" to buy more antiques and wool 😁.  I did buy just a few things at the show (and one great gift that I can't share at this time).  

I have a "thing" about little wooden totes and this one divided in to four sections had to come home with me.  I waited until the show was minutes from being over . . . trying to talk myself out of it.  The old quilt hearts were from Sue.  

There were a few other items I considered buying but by the time I decided I really wanted them, they had already sold.  They weren't meant to be!

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
