Adrialys Handmade Creations: Craft Fairs and WIPS

Wow I've been doing a really bad job at blogging this year. I always have something to share but I forget to actually take time to write up the post.

WHAT HAVE I BEEN UP TO THESE PAST 2 MONTHS?

I mentioned in early May that I was waiting to hear if I had been accepted into my first craft Market and I was. It was on June 6th and a lot of people came. I had several people purchase so I consider it a successful one. Its an outdoor market every first Friday of the month so it helped that it was really nice outside. Here a picture of my display.

Since the June market went so well I signed up for another one in August. This one was not so great. It rained the entire time and very few people stopped by. It was still a learning experience for being prepared in bad weather. The booth space is only $20 for me since my brother and I sell together and split the price so I only lost $20. I made a lot of new items that will have to wait until next time to be seen but I'll be sharing them here on Friday! My display was different for this one.

I just signed up for the September one and have been accepted so I'm hoping for good weather. Since I still have everything from the August one I don't really have to prepare which gives me time to focus on other things like this blog!

What am I working on?

This week I am working on updating a few patterns I released last year. The first one if Gabriel the Grey Wolf. The second version is simplified meaning less sewing. I am working on my second sample. Here is a preview of the head. I'll be sharing a finished sample on Friday!

I also started another sample for my Octavio the Octopus pattern. I want to change the bottom of it slightly but I haven't gotten to it yet so I don't know if my changes will work or not.

Don't miss FO Friday this week, I have a ton of stuff to share! :)
