Holiday Craft Fairs

I've been sewing up a storm to try to get some inventory items ready for a few holiday craft fairs I'm participating in.  I love meeting people, so if you're in the area, I'd love for you to come out and see our items!  My first one is this Friday, and I'm selling Misty's Blessings items, my friend Sara's Girly Girlz and Sew Yours Boutique items, and my friend Amanda's brand new bow holder creations--Momma Bear Creations, they are TOO cute!  Here are the details:

Thanks for the new followers and entries, I hope to do giveaways more often!! Please tell your friends, I'm saving up for a bigger/better sewing & embroidery machine (which will allow me to offer many more fun and exciting projects!), and most of my sales currently are going to fund that. I have a SmartyPig.com account showing my progress, and with these most recent sales, I've made a little bit of progress! I hope to have it before Christmas to make some great gifts and blessings for you all!
