and home again

2012 is proving to be one giddy roller-coaster ride. i just get my bags unpacked, my feet on the ground and i'm off again. (yes - those all professionally polished shoes. finally. )

i just love shoemakers and shoeshine guys...
we set up our booth displays on friday - again thank-you government of newfoundland and labrador for all your support.

every time i leave the province on a craft related activitity i realize again how lucky we are for the help that we get - not all provinces are as generous to their craftspeople...
on saturday evening we had a reception and an award ceremony and our lovely anne manuel (the captain of the craft council) was awarded for all her incredible work for craftspeople in the province. we always tell her how wonderful she is but now it's nice that everyone knows.

halifax was not orlando.

and the 2012 show was not the 2011 show. far viewer buyers although the orders were more substantial in many cases. so although i didn't get as many orders as i'd hoped, i have a few new shops. and enough work to keep me busy now well into the summer. and that's what it's all about...
