Our first craft fair sale

One of the moms managed to get a spot at the local Methodist Church's annual craft fair. The craft fair took place on Nov. 8, 2008 from 10am to 2pm. I took in several machine embroidered items and nice baby quilt. One of the girl's Grandmothers had made several beautiful necklaces and I also saw a few cell phone charms. Two of the moms also baked cookies and cakes.

The quilt got sold as did a few other items. Not many of the cakes sold so they will be frozen for the next sale. When you think about it, Walmart freezes all of their baked goods for transport so we are just following their example.

Not many people were at this years craft sale. I visited that particular craft sale last year and there were more sellers as well as many more buyers. Mostly retired people were the shoppers.

The next craft sale will be this coming weekend (Nov. 14-16, 2008) if we can get a spot in one of them. There are about 3-4 in the local area (Lebanon and Albany, Oregon). I will be making a few stadium/lap blankets with machine embroidered pictures on them. Wish us luck and good sales.
