So busy on show circuit, time to catch up on blog.









Well, we've been working for a number of weeks with no breaks, and I have been neglecting the blog updates and happenings.

Catching up.
Collingswood, NJ show started out great but unfortunately the torrential rain and lightening on Sunday had us close up early. Thomson had a fun Saturday assisting our friends Emily and Ray of Album Cover Handbags.

Mt. Gretna, PA, Outdoor Arts & Fine Crafts show was a big success, both in sales and response to our work. The judges looked kindly on us again as Finestra earned a Yellow & White Ribbon for Judges Choice. It will go well with the Green and Yellow ribbon from 2006, and with the ribbon comes automatic acceptance to next years show, so see you all then. Thank you Mt. Gretna

This past weekend we were part of the Pocono Guild of Craftsman show at Quiet Valley Living Historical Farm. Very authentic, true feeling of working farm from early 1800's, so much so that I think some folks expected our prices to reflect the time period rather than present day. Oh well , win some lose some. A warm "Thank You" to the customers who truly understand and appreciate our work.
A lovely place to spend part of the day if you find yourself in the Pocono/Stroudsburg, PA area. So don't wait for the craft show weekend before you visit.

Coming up next Harrisburg, stay tuned for more info.
