Something old, something new

I'll bet some of you thought I'd stopped sewing. But no! Craft show season is in full swing, heading toward the holidays. 

Or are the holidays heading toward us, somewhat like a speeding train? Either way, what better time to work up a new pattern to add to add to the table? 

I've always been the Crayola kid, all the colors, all the time, but I've been feeling the need for something more restful, and these pale creatures - still working on a name for them - fit the bill. And I still get to dress them up in all my brightly-colored remnants, so it's all good.

I had a show yesterday and had seven for the table. Only one sold - they seemed to appeal more to parents than children - but I had interest from two stores who want to discuss wholesale orders, so I consider that a success. 

Of course, I'm supposed to sew wholesale orders when? I'll think about that in January. I'll think about all that in January.
