Happy first day of spring y’all!! I think we’re due for 8cm of the sticky white stuff here in Calgary today (she writes while shaking her fist at the sky). I’ve had it. Really, has this been the longest winter in the history of winters? I’m sure I feel this way every year around this time which then begs the question, why not move? I have pondered this, but I’m a not a gypsy like my sister (love ya Melly) the need for a change of scenery does not whalup me in the back of the head one day and I up and move on….and not an adventurer either, as a matter of fact, my definition of adventure is peeing on the side of the hi-way on a trip between two civilized well mapped out points of security, so here I sit with the well known and grudgingly accepted Canadian winter. Accustom to my surroundings and a little complacent I find happiness in the hum drum and days become months become years and so on and so forth. Anywhoo, weather. Boring, I know, but it’s what’s on my mind this fine morning.
Oh and what of my last 5 months you ask? Yes, it’s been that long since i last blogged, well I must say an awful lot has gone on! The Festival of Crafts for one! And it went swimmingly (i don’t even know what that means) but it went very well. I came very close to selling out of all of my adult sized aprons and if you’ve been to the website lately you’ll see replenishment has not come rapidly. You’ll never believe it but, Cotton prices have gone up!!! I may wait it out
and I may not…. in the end I didn’t. I’ve got 4 bolts (not my regular 8) and I’m going to have these fabulous aprons put together for the Lilac festival May 29th. Cool hey!! And this particular festival happens rain or shine (or snow for that matter) and so pray for some nice weather or I’m going to be an unhappy camper. So with that weather bit settled I invite you to come out and pick up an apron or 8. I’ll leave ya with a photo of the fabric I picked as a temptation
But for now I must sign off as I must go pick up my little chickidees at school.
So untill the next time I remain faithfully and inconsistently yours.
