Whew!

The next few weeks are INSANE!
Work dinners, big staff meetings, GA National Fair on Saturday, maybe the Drive Invasion Sunday and then festivals out the wazoo! We have the L5P Halloween fest in 2 weeks on the 16th, then the Cabbagetown Chomp and Stomp on nov. 6th, the Athens Craftstravaganza on the 13th of November, and THEN the ICE show on the 20th and 21st. WHEW!
This coming weekend is the World Championship Bike Messenger Races and my boyfriend has friends from all over coming in.
I have to finish my Halloween costume AND I have to finish my Day of The Dead Artwork for the show at Youngblood on the 30th.

I'm gonna need a red bull.

I know, I'm running WAY behind: The STRUT

So I love to work the East Atlanta Strut even though festivals are a) not profitable, b)a LOT of work, and c) exhausting. The Strut is fun because I get to see so many fun people! Its really a blast! I get there at 7:30, set up, wait, eat, eat, hang out, eat and throughout it all I sell some stuff.

I love these guys. There were 2 green dressed guys and they were FANTASTIC. The parade was a lot of fun and very silly. I love how big the STRUT is getting and sometimes wish I could volunteer instead of work a booth.

Look at my sock monkeys. I sold 2 out of the 5. I think I may make some more. They're a great way to use up scraps since they are 100% stuffed with quilt scraps I trim off. The one with red ears and red arms and the argyle one went to live with other people. I'm happy for the little guys.

My next fest is the Cabbagetown Chomp and Stomp. Its also a chili cookoff so you MUST go check it out! Its a blast but get there before noon or the chili will be gone. It always goes fast and this year will be bigger than ever!
