Craft-tastic Announcement!!

I'm going to be selling my crafts at an awesome craft bazaar!!!!  I realise this might not be exciting for you, but it sure is for me.  Let me tell you all about it, starting from four years ago.

Four years ago, I decided I was going to start a business making baby and children's blankets.  Quilts, playmats, minkies, all kinds of cute things.  I bought all kinds of fabrics and designed all kinds of quilts and even bought labels.  But then, well, life got busy.  I just couldn't put in the time I wanted to and my plans (and my fabrics) got put in some very adorable vintage suitcases and packed away in the Closet of Unfinished Business.

But then a few weeks ago, one of my friends approached me about a craft show she wanted to put together.  At first I didn't think I had time, but then I heard me say to myself "It's now or never, girlfriend. Take this chance!!!"

I'm very grateful for this opportunity and I love that it's my friend's first go at a craft show as well. We both get to realise a dream and that is awesome!

So here's a glimpse at what's been going on in Sarahmerica: CUTTING!! As you can see, I have a lot of boy-ish fabrics. This is because most of my friends have had boys in the past few years and I thought the selection of cute boy stuff was abysmal, so I wanted my blankets to be bold, exciting boy stuff, not the sparsed patterned, pastelish stuff I was seeing at Fancy Tiger.

I like bright. Bright, bright, bright.  So that's what most of the blankets will be.

I will also have a bunch of Christmas cards, christmas tags, and Thank You cards (you'll be especially needing those, right?), as well as some high quality vintage clothes and accessories.

When is this fair? It's called the Great Bar Bazaar and will be held on Saturday, December 12 from 11 am to 5 pm at Roo Bar (3480 Park Avenue West).

I know there are other craft fairs that day, so make the Great Bar Bazaar a stop on your crafty holiday goodies tour and check out my handmade loot!!!

Quick subject change: Next Thursday will be the first installment of Physical Fitness Thursday here at Sunshine Satellite.  I set a goal to be able to do TEN pull ups by next October, and I am going to use this blog to hold me accountable!!  I will be talking about some of the tools I am going to use to meet my goal, so look for it Thursday, or better yet, subscribe to my blog and let your email tell you when I update!!
