Frilly Frully!
I spent Saturday tracing and painting signs. Orders have been coming in the last few weeks and I would like to have some order finish by the Marketplace....but the tracing and painting made my neck stiff that I decided to take Sunday off and play. After wondering in Old Town Temecula I came back home and gathered fabrics, ribbons and lace and got to work. I always wanted to make a book cover.






I also worked on my banner for the tent. Sara and Abbey from Sweet Magnolia printed the words for me a while back and I finally finished it with lace and vintage flowers. It will go in the front of my tent for the Vintage Marketplace.
