I just love the holidays but this year I think I missed them. I was so busy with orders that I didn't get to put up the Christmas tree. From word of mouth to my ebay sales, WOW! I know this was a wonderful problem to have but I was not prepared for the overwhelming amount of orders I received starting in October. I was sewing from 6 am to 1 am and a few times woke up sitting at my sewing machines.
Well now that it's over I can start sewing some stock for the craft shows that I am excited to participate in this year. I started with just 2 last year to get my feet wet. And with FNO's help I was able to find just the right shows to do this. I learned so much.
Such as;
1. Pack your vehicle up the night before so in the morning you just have to grab your coffee and go. 
2. Mapquest is a God send for those of us that are geographically challenged.
3. Make a list of all the items I need to bring to the show and check them off as I pack up.
4. And don't forget my change.
5. All the other vendors are Angels sent just for me. 
So armed with my new knowledge and FNO's help I am ready to start the new year with craft shows.
