I made pretty good progress this week, considering how busy I've been with my "real" job. ;)
 |
| Pin cushions sewn (still need buttons): 35 |
 |
| Medium and small kicksticks finished: 41 (total, not each) |
Totals Completed for Holiday Show:
Pin cushions: 11
Catnip Quilts: 17
Kickstick Bitties: 81
Medium Kicksticks: 37
Jumbo Kicksticks: 5
Catnip Mice and Squids: 2
Catnip Pillows: 163
In a perfect world, I'd like a nice round 100 of each item. I'm not sure that's realistic, though. How do you guys determine how much stock to have on hand for a craft show? Do you have a system for it?
There were some awesome shares from the team, last week. Fabric Fascination shared a finished top, some gorgeous batik blocks, and adorable stockings.
Happier Than A Bird Quilts shared a spiderweb quilt, drunken zebra blocks (!), and some crazy cute doll quilts.
Char from Cloth Stitched is really working it. She shared some richly colored table runners, and a shawl that's too pretty for words. Check out this detail.
Terry Aske shared a stunningly beautiful art quilt, using silk leaves.
Ann from Magpie Quilts shared her "Santa's Workshop" and lovely Christmas stockings in seasonal fabric.
Everyone has such beautiful work! I love to see what our team has going. Thanks to everyone who joined up last week, and who will be joining up this week.

You are busy! May I ask what the kick sticks are used for?
I haven't done any craft shows, so can't help with suggestions for quantities. I hope your show is successful!
Thanks for featuring my silk leaves art quilt from last week.
Wonderful craft show ideas!
Hi, Barb! "Kicksticks" are stuffed full of organic catnip and a little polyfil. Cats grab them and give them a good kicking and chewing. It's hilarious. :) I've taken to lining them with muslin or canvas to make them more durable.
