How did it go?

I know you have all been waiting patiently for an update about how our sale at Last Thursday went.

It went pretty well, considering our sort of off the beaten path location and it being our first time. We had fun and got a lot of compliments. Our booth looked darling and once the wind died down a bit, it was a piece of cake. The Koi Fusion tacos helped also!

Here is a peek at the super cute hand dyed (with all natural ingredients) napkins that we will be selling in the etsy shop soon! A variety pack or a set of all the same color, your choice! Custom made! We could even add some little embroidered embellishments if you want!

We will also be dying tote bags and any other things we think might be fun to dye.
You can see a little bit of the totes in this picture of our booth.

Overall, we didn't sell as much as we hoped but it was still fun and we are going to do it again next month. If you missed us last week, you will have to come visit in August!

Last Thursday and Hello Again!

The last post on this blog was on April 6th! That is just so sad. We have been busy with lots of crafts and projects but somehow none of them have made it here.

We finally got a Facebook page set up, so go click the thumbs up at facebook.com/mostlystitches!

We are going to be selling some items at Last Thursday on NE Alberta this week, in the lot across from Radio Room! Come by and say hello and see our precious goods in person!
Here is a sneak preview of some of our new fave creations.
