Craft Fairs and Good Dogs

Well the first craft fair of the season is over with record breaking sales! All my mermaids sold but one and I had to kiss all the sock monkeys good bye as well! The "GOOD DOG" blankets just flew out the window! My sister Barb has been talking about good dogs and mentioned my dog Molly who came to us 8 years ago from the SPCA. Molly was my inspiration for making these blankets in the first place, we thank our lucky stars for her every day. Now to get back to the craft fair... I will have to spend the next week sewing more of the above as we have another sale this coming weekend. It looks like it's the year of the mermaids! Doreen (my craft fair partner) and I will be taking over the two day craft fair (the one we just did) next year as the family that has done it for the last 10 years doesn't want to anymore (some of them have moved and find it just too hard to get back to town) We are very excited about it and with 32 years of fairs between us I think we will manage quite well. We have always wanted to run one ourselves and now we seem to have inherited the fair that was deemed last years best of the coast! The mermaids, sock monkeys, dog blankets and more will be for sale in my new shop "raincoast crafts" coming in January 2007.
