Chopperfest is here!!

I have been "sew" busy the past few weeks!! Thought I would try and catch up. My sewing machine has sure gotten a work out. I have been sewing handbags, neck wraps, can & bottle cozys, head bands, and camera bags. I also have been making some barn wood signs. Good thing I have been bringing up goods as I get them done. I have the car jam packed and I still need room for my friend Jo's stuff, mine and Ted's stuff and a cooler. I totally realized last night that I still needed to bring display stuff up there. Nothing like waiting til the last minute.

I made some can and bottle cozys and showed them to the owner of the campground. Guess what she wants a ton of camo one's with the bar's name on them. She loved the frayed edge look. This is what I came up with.

I printed the tag on fabric that has heat-n-bond on the back. Ironed it on and stiched around it to make it secure. They have fleece on the inside. Just zig zagged around them.

Now I just have to come up with bandana's for her also that have the bar name on them. Think I will be busy for awhile.

My first project is getting some house work caught up on. My poor garage is a total disaster. Not to mention the sewing room.

I'll post pictures next week some time. We will be going up tomorrow some time. Wish me lots of sales.

Have a wonderful weekend.
