Garage Sale Event AND SOCKS SOCKS SOCKS

Well we had our wonderful garage sale/demo event. All who attended had a great time and got some really cool bargains. The table vendors made lots of money and the store did well too.
We are already planning our next event. A BIG THANK YOU SHOUT OUT TO:
Kimberly McCausland from Our Craft Lounge for doing a wonderful make n take inside the store. She made the coolest display out of the back of the store with all of her super cute stamp sets.

AND to Rayme Royale and Danielle Forsgren from Scrapbook Diva's internet radio show for being on hand to sign their fabulous new project book. Which by the way - has been picked up by a local major craft store (congrats to them). BUT WE STILL HAVE SIGNED COPIES FOR SALE IN THE STORE - but they are going fast - so be sure to get your soon.

AND to the gals that demo'd - I don't know what I'd do without them!
AND WE CAN'T FORGET THE GREAT RANDINI - who I'm told gave out 15% discounts to everyone that purchased. So if you missed this event - you better catch the next one - coz he'll be there handing out stuff.

We are planning our next event for July - be sure to watch for the dates!!!!!

As for my knitting - not much other than socks. I've mastered Lindsay's winding river toe up sock pattern and I've mastered Cat Bordhi's circular cuff down sock pattern - the Columbine Peak. Both very cute and very fun.

With the new hours for project nite (2nd and 4th Thursday's of every month) and the new store hours - I've been able to get home earlier and knit more. Maybe I'll even finish more projects.

Projects for the store have included - finishing the 3 books for the classes, the grungeboard book, the 7 gypsies book and the altered mini. I've had lots of fun working "OUTSIDE" the box. My kind of art! (you know - NO RULES).

My grandson Davin - now has a tooth (I can't believe he did that without me!!!!). So I'm planning my trip to see him a little earlier! - Probably September for his 1 yr birthday.
But he's as cute as ever and I miss him dearly (ok I miss my daughter and son in law too).
That's it for now............
gotta do some ordering for the store now - keepin those new products coming.
