San Francisco Bead and Design Show

Oh wow, I have so many things I want to post. But for tonight I am just going to post my booth so you can see it. It is so hard to take pictures at these shows even though I have my camera. There is so much going on that you just get so distracted. I did manage to get a couple. Here is my booth.

Also, the yellow vest dress I made to wear one of the days to highlite how you can use the buttons. The pockets came in so handy and I loved doing the stenciling on the pockets with Daddy's old stencils. I had so much fun and I met the best people. Grace, the lady behind me was so much like you ML. All the people around me just kept me laughing and inspired the whole time. I wish I could bottle it. I also met some new great friends. I will tell about these later. Plus I have to show what I traded with the other vendors. Some wonderful things. I sold quite a few of my bracelets and was so sad to see them leave. I am very attached to them. Anyway I will post more tomorrow. I am going to watch the Biggest Loser on TV so I have to hurry. I have already missed half of it. Rita

Look at this guy!

Can you believe this picture. It has so many levels. He must love to crochet... but look at the people around him. Are they visually dead. How come noone is staring at him. this is not something you see everyday, is it? Wow. He is over the top. I wish I could speak to him. I think we would be best friends. Ha

Just wanted to say Hi.

I don't mind being busy but only with things I like. I have been busy lately with Doctors, hair and roofing contractors. Not fun. Today I am having to fast because tomorrow I have to have a colostomy, a blood test and a masectomy. Oh it is so dreadful and it is a long drive. I made the most beautiful soup yesterday and I can't even have any of it today.

I went to the art store on Sunday and of course since Jenny's fabric store was up that way I had to visit. He he. Look at these fabrics. Mostly they are for my booth display but oh my the black dots with the delicious looking oranges on it had to come with me. Can't you just imagine a skirt. Oh and what about the funny one. the name of the fabric is That's sew wrong. A designer with a sense of humor. This has to be a pair of pants.

You sent me buttons. Oh How Fantastic!!!!

ML - I have put all the buttons you sent me on flicker for a record to enjoy over and over. Once they get mixed in with my buttons I won't remember which ones came from you. So generous. Here is what I have made out of the ribbons that you sent me. I am going to bead and decorate it next. Doesn't it look like a pretty catapillar. I don't know if there is such a thing. Have a great week, I know I will. Love ya. Rita
