Facebook Giveaway

So Hayden Panettiere tweeted a picture of the quilt I was commissioned to make for her by the props department here on "Nashville."  I think that's pretty cool so I decided to have a giveaway on the FB page that I set up for MarvelousAuntieM. 

Yesterday morning before work I finished up this little quilted cosmetics bag.  I love the bright colors and I kinda quilted around the flowers and on the inside you can see outlines of flowers.

So head on over to www.facebook.com/marvelousauntiem and like the page and share the photo to be entered into the drawing.  The proud new owner will be selected on Friday August 30th at noon so make sure you go share the photo before then.

Craft fairs.....I'm gonna do it

I have been wanting to do a craft fair for a while now.  I decided to stop saying I'm going to do one and just do it.  I've already submitted my booth rental fee for the Fall'iday Bazaar on October 26th in Lebanon.  One of my hometown friends will be joining me in this effort.  I also saw that the Merry September Boutique Vendor Fair still had some slots so I've submitted an application to do this one as well.  Fingers crossed I get to do it too.  It will be six weeks before the first one that I was planning on doing so I have a lot of inventory that I need to get cracking on.  Still need to figure out what all I want to make for both of them.  I think I'll definitely make some of these faux chenille pillows.  I'm really excited that I finally am going to do a craft fair and expose my hand made goodies to more people.  Come on out and see me and my friend Katie at the Fall'iday Bazaar.

New sewing room!

So yesterday I finally got to start setting up a sewing room. It's like my birthday, Christmas, anniversary and every other holiday all rolled in to one.  I am over the moon deciding how I want everything all set up.

Yesterday I cleaned the carpets and painted the room a light blue.  This morning I started putting tables and shelves in to place.  Now I need to start organizing my fabric.

Facebook page

I finally got around to creating a Facebook page for Marvelous Auntie M and I already have people I don't know who are liking it.  I'm starting to get very serious about all this sewing stuff 😀

Also super psyched about doing the Fall'iday Bazaar in October. This weekend will be spent organizing fabric and focusing on what I want to make to take to my first craft fair.

Here is a glimpse of the last quilt I completed...I should be able to disclose the recipient in a coupes of weeks.
