Finished!

After all my talk about home sewn logo quilts and Farmer's Market applications, I finally set up my pretend craft show booth today. Hooray! What a load off my mind that was. I still need to actually make my table covers, and do some tweaking, but I'm happy with the results so far. And I must admit, I think my logo quilt turned out pretty nice. I definitely want to write up a tutorial on how I made it, but first things first. Tomorrow I walk my application into the Farmer's Market office for the jury selection on Thursday. I should know by the end of the week if I got in. I think selling my things in person will be a lot better than online.
And that's not all. I also received my package from Tamy yesterday for the Bucket of Sunshine Swap. This girl is on it. I haven't even finished my container yet and she's already mailed hers. I'm embarrassed. (Tamy, if you're reading this, I hope to mail your package tomorrow). I've tried to be good about not ripping into my pretty little package, but the temptation is getting the better of me. I think I will have it all unwrapped by tomorrow. Looks like there are some great goodies in there. :) Fun stuff.


Oh yeah, and check out Jenn's blog on Monday. A little bird told me she's having a contest of some sort. hmmmm

The logo quilt is a masterpiece! You can add one more table to make a U shape (one time I got a 6 foot buffet table unadvertised 1/2 off at Linen's and Things). I see the shelf unit in the back, where will you have a seat? lots of good ways to set up, have a great year with the farmers market!

The logo quilt is amazing and I love your flags in your set-up. If you don't get in, those people are crazy! But, I'm sure you will!

I am in awe of your logo banner! Simply amazing!! I want to do a booth at the local flea market during the holiday season. I can't wait to here about what works and what doesn't. Your booth is so inviting!

Your logo quilt is marvelous! And your trial set-up looks really great. I'd definitely stop at your booth if I was at the show.

Your setup looks awesome! I love the logo quilt. Wow!

I especially love the banner you have all around the top. That will really draw people's eyes up there and you can use the space!

You booth looks fantastic! I've been thinking of sewing a logo sign for my weekly market but haven't gotten off my duff to do it :) I picked up some of those print out sheets that you recommended. Can't wait to try them out this week :)

That quilt is so neat! I love it!

I just bought a sewing machine and it took me 2 hours to thread it. Now I don't know what to do. I can't even sew in a straight line...
