Sale! Sale! Sale!

To help her husband in their wood shop where together they make beautiful furniture pieces, a creative and  crafty  friend of mine is giving up selling her unique handiwork at our shows that we have been doing together for several years.


She generously let me have her "leftovers" which I am now offering for sale at very reasonable prices ....and....ALL THE PROFIT  FROM THE SALE OF THESE ITEMS WILL GO TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY!!! 

To purchase, visit my website, http://www.wood-n-stitches.com/ and contact to let me know what piece/pieces you are interested in purchases and I will send you an invoice.  Then you may make your tax deductible check to The American Cancer Society and mail it to me.  After I receive your check, I will ship your package to you ASAP.


You may also just purchase using the shopping cart on the website, but won't get the tax deduction.


Here are some of the items.

It Will Be Here Before We Know It...

Also, lunch and supper will be sold to raise money for the American Cancer Society.

There will also be a small town Christmas parade in town on Saturday.  Come join the fun. 

These are some of the latest Santas I've finished to take to the show.

Can you guess the colors of the local football team?  I can add the  team's name or player's number to the pennant.

It's Almost Time For the Fat Lady to Sing!!!!

My last craft show for the year is over...well, almost over.  There's still the clean up and the paperwork.   Oh, the paperwork!!!  You see...this is not only a show in which I just am an exhibitor...but also one I co-host with some friends.  I'll post more about that later, but here are a few pics.  Wish I had more, but the battery died in my camera.  I should have been a girl scout and been prepared with a spare one.

This is the community center's auditorium before the crafters arrived to start setting up their booths.

Look at the shine on that floor.  See the reflections of the columns?

This is a shot of the parking lot minutes after we opened.  You can't see it very well, but the cars are parked 4 rows deep.

These are some of the booths. 

Yes, even MEN came by the droves!

Okay...the real reason the men were there...FOOD of course.  My sisters were serving up some fine homemade taco soup and chicken salad croisant plates complete with fruit salad, a pickle, dessert and a drink.  All the lunch proceeds went to The American Cancer Society!  Thanks to all the support of the community for this worthy cause, they more than met their goal.  This is the lunch line.

Before you know it, it will be time to start planning for the 2010 show!  First, we have to get over all our aches and pains!!!  Twenty-two years of doing this, is taking its toll!
