What a good time we had at the Farmers' Market yesterday. Thank you all for wishing me well on opening day, and thanks to all of you that stopped by to say hello, it was great to put smiling faces to names! Wasn't the weather absolutely perfect? Now let's please hope for a little more of that sunshine for the farmers... spring sure has been off to a pretty gray and cool start for their crops.
The past several nights have seen me heading off to bed fairly early (8:30 - 9:00) and then setting my alarm for 2:00 am to get up and sew. It might seem crazy but I really couldn't have found the time otherwise to sew and prepare for the market. It'll get easier once my weekday job is over for the summer. As hard as it was to get up at that hour, once I did, my work flowed so easily. The house was quiet, I didn't feel like I should be doing something else with my time, and with each hour that passed it got lighter and lighter outside and the birds would wake up one by one which was very sweet. And then my family would wake up one by one, and I felt so satisfied with 5 hours of work behind me.
Anyway, just wanted to pop in quickly this morning to say thank you for asking me to list some of these market bags in the shop, and to let you know that I finally did get a chance to do that! Come on over to have a look if you'd like... and don't forget you have until tonight to enter this month's First Friday Giveaway!
Enjoy the fresh start to a new week!
