Less than a week before the Brunswick show and I'm finishing up a half dozen lavender sachets to add to the inventory. The previously mentioned placemats never happened but I'm okay for now. I suspect that will be first on the list next week, at which time I can add holiday fabrics to the mix. And I'm busier than ever with UMC membership queries as we put the word out for non-members. I've decided that we're only about 20% successful in converting those to actual show applications as most people are looking for the $25 table shows. I get it. The first time I did Artistree I gulped at the about of money they wanted for a booth but it was so worth it. I found my audience and some good friends.
I put on my big girl pants on Friday and watched a race from Saratoga - a horse bred and partially owned by an FOB. The mare had won an allowance last year at the Spa in an upset that had people talking for days. Good connections, local trainer, his daughter is the jockey - what's not to love? Anyway, Val didn't have the same result this year but it doesn't matter. She came home safely, is loved and that's what really matters.
We went to see Theater Camp yesterday. Loved it. Took me back to my drama-rama days at IC. Not a fan of the new "improved" Maine Film Center (aka Railroad Square). It's now a soulless glass and cement barn with little to recommend it beyond its newness and better seats.
