Craft Fair Countdown

After preparing for a craft fair for about two months, my sewing area looked like a tornado hit it. I was so happy to get it all cleaned up yesterday. While going through my fabric, I found a bit of fleece perfect for a baby blanket. I turned up the edges and zig zagged around it. My last (I swear!) item for the craft fair.

I have made a sign to hang from my table at the craft fair. It's totally homemade, but I think it's kind of cute. I had originally stamped various colored polka dots above and below the words. It looked terrible, so I did some doodles around the dots. It looked worse. I added Stickles (glitter glue) and I finally had to admit that it was beyond repair. This looks much better and I realized it's not that important anyway!
