Second day at the OOAK, seems like everyone I know or have knit for came by the booth, it was wonderful. To go from spending waaaaaay too much time all alone (well… me and General Hospital) in my studio for weeks leading up to the shows to having all these wonderful people stop by is…
…. town. First day of the One of a Kind show. Here is a pic of my booth. Actually it’s a different day, the first day was yesterday…. I’m just up late at the B&B taking advantage of somebody’s wireless!!!
Well, bags, I don’t know about the fun.
