Getting Ready for NS Folk Art Festival

NS Folk Art Festival 2009
The NS Folk Art Festival is quickly approaching, July 31st in Lunenburg, NS. I am hooking one more rug for the festival and then have a few left to do the finshing on...I am up to the last minute this year!!agh, guess I felt the need for a little drama.

The festival is sooo special, I can't say enough good things about it. It is great to meet fellow Folk Artists, it is great to meet the people who appreciate your work..and it is great to have such wonderful volunteers who help each year with the festival...great great great!!!!!

I will admit it is a bit nerve wracking. I do well every year I have attended but I always have a nagging worry that no one will stop by my table, I won't sell a single rug..I 'll feel like the last kid picked for the baseball team. Do all the Folk Artists feel this way I wonder??

New Shipment of Sari Ribbon Arrived!

Yesterday was like Christmas for me as a new batch of sari ribbon arrived in the mail!!!Yes, it excites me. I order it from a supplier on Etsy and to all you hookers out there...sari ribbon can really add to your rugs..it is thready, shiny..comes in yummy colours and you are helping a women's coop in Nepal as well. The women collect the left over scrapes from the sari "factories" and then sew them end to end and are paid fair wages for doing so.
