Hit the Road Jack!


Well, the time has come.
The U-haul comes tomorrow and we are packing up
for the "show-apocalypse"(my husbands term ).
Of course I am looking at my inventory the night before it needs to be packed
in a gorgeous brown box and am thinking to myself....
"why did i do that in those colors?"
"that would look better in black."
"is anyone going to get it...maybe."
Happens every show- the "i hate everything i make" idea.
But, maybe no one else will hate it.
positive. thinking.
positive. thinking.

See you after the show!
A Nice Girl.

The Clock is Ticking....tick, tock, tick





Well, the end is near.
Or, should I say the beginning is near....I hope.
We are gearing up for the Indiana Artisan Marketplace Show is Indianapolis, IN - April 16-17,2011!
If you do not already know about the Indiana Artisan program, be ashamed.
Really ashamed...Joking.
This program is really developing into a great guild of Indiana artists (us!!!) and food crafters who have all juried in by different panels to this, what I think , is a pretty prestigious group.

Be sure to check out their website to find out all of the nitty-gritty details.

I have tried to stay motivated.
Started off REALLY well, and well, my gusto is dwindling (production wise at least).
For Spring 2011, I have a new line that I have been working on, "The Speedwell Collection".
Speedwell you ask?
Yes, Speedwell is the Shetland Ram's name that this entire collection is based around.
He is a fabulous sheep that graciously ( sort of ) lent me his fleece to create wonderful pieces of art with. Such as this one, which you will find at the show next week!
Well, I need to get busy, at something!


All for now-
A Nice Girl.
