- Amelia’s first time on ice skates- Family Day 2010.
I am very blessed. Lately my life has consisted of a women’s weekend away to Invermere (sans enfants), heart shaped valentines pancakes (made by my husband) and a family day full of wonderful time spent with my nearest and dearest. Life is really good and I feel like I’ve been in vacation mode for quite some time, but that has to come to an end. I have to get back into pre-show work mode. But this is okay as I am feeling excited and energetic because, and maybe it’s just me but, I smell SPRING! It’s in the air-the ground hog did not see it’s shadow- and spring is just around the corner. YAHOO!
In my search for a fun spring show to do I asked another artisan if they knew of one in Calgary, the friendly ladies (and local Calgary gals) at “Buckles and Beads” helped me out and told me about the “Portobello West” show April 9-11, 2010. My friend Candice had them make me a fantastic belt and an awesome buckle with my logo on it . Now Portobello West is a Fashion and Arts show. I, of course, consider Candy Apple Aprons both “Fashion and Art” but wasn’t sure if the show organizers would agree, turns out THEY DO!!
So Candy Apple Apparel Inc. will be strutting its stuff among the many other artisans and designers at Portobello West . It looks like it will be a very interesting show, lots of one of a kind cloths and jewellery and hats , well accessories of all kinds, including really cute belt buckles by “Buckles and Beads” as well!
So, I have my seamstress mice sewing aprons all day and night while I scrub floors for my evil step mother so they should be ready to go in good time for the ball.
Another fun little something I received was a surprise from a family member my husband went to visit at the beginning of January. Aaron came home and handed me a big black binder. “What’s this?” I said. “Just a little something from Charlotte” Aaron says…… I opened it up to find it was stocked full of well organized 1950′s APRON PATTERNS!!! OMGosh I think I even squealed when I opened that wonderful black binder 
So, thank so much Charlotte! I LOVE them and plan to sew them ALL. Maybe I’ll post them once I sew them. We’ll see
Well I guess that’s it for now. I must go watch the Olympics. GO CANADA!
P to the A to the M.
