silverlake craft sale

  rachel's beautiful dolls and prints

My friend Rachel invited me to share a booth at the silverlake art craft & vinatge sale. 

It ended up being a slow day but a lot of fun.

hand quilting

I've really been enjoying handwork lately, so I thought this little 

quilt could be my first attempt at quilting by hand.

I'm thinking mini

A little sewing project just for me.

I made the pink quilt from old linens and vintage sheets.

 I have been meaning to finish the green mini quilt for awhile now.

(the top was made by a member from the guild) 

quilted, and now the binding!

 embroidered bookmarks I made for the park ladies

while I was taking pictures, baby blue had a little dust bath

advent calendars

This year I decided to use the fabric advent calendars I had made a few years ago. I like to do something a little different each year so for this December I put clues in the pockets so each morning the girls can choose a pocket to find a clue and match it to a gift in the treasure chest. The biggest excitement came from the coupons. They are for things like extra computer time, choose the game we play, a special treat or pick the movie on movie night. They really enjoyed it and so did I!

the sale!

I want to thank everyone that came out to support us this weekend!  

It was an amazing turnout, we are truly grateful! Being that it was our first time having a sale we weren't sure what to expect but we are so happy and excited with all of the positive 

responses and overwhelming support. We had so much fun putting it together.
