Glebe Artisan and Craft Fair

I spent this past weekend at the Glebe Fair in Ottawa.   It was a lovely show with lots of talented craftspeople.    I was happy to see there was much interest in my work.    During the 3 days I got to talk to other quilters and got several good ideas for future shows.   I entered the show at the last minute so the last two weeks were busy planning my display.


The best part of it all was the way my friends supported me.    I have to thank all of you for pitching in - lending me display items, picking them up and delivering them to me,  making my table covers (don't they look great), helping me to set up and take down, providing me with food and drink, taking over so I could have a lunch break, giving constructive criticism and moral support, and even purchasing my work.

I've posted a couple of photos of my booth in the beautiful Glebe Community Centre (where I used to display my work for many years as a member of the Ottawa Guild of Potters).

This week I need to work on preparing for the Art Quilt class I am taking.  Our next session is Saturday.

News to Share

I am busy preparing for a show at the Glebe Community Centre in Ottawa on November 13, 14 and 15. Lots to do in the next two weeks. Besides finishing up a few pieces I have displays to prepare and need to update my business cards to include my blog address and change of email. The week after that I have my next Art Quilt class with Elaine Quehl so I'd better get going on my homework. I am also preparing to teach an online class (more about that later). Whew! I have my work cut out for me. But it's all good. I'm doing what I love.

I hope to post photos of my latest piece shortly so keep checking in.
