Now that the market is over, I'm back to my regularly scheduled program of tending my garden, starting new projects and working to pay for garden and new project supplies.

I'm here at the Jackson Sidewalk Market and just dropped off 2 more daisy crossbody bags. I have 2 more that are almost finished. I ran out of steam and time today. Ellie Mills Mercantile will be open until 9pm tonight for the market. Parking might be a challenge, but it's a great way to support local businesses and the weather couldn't be better!

It's almost market day! I will be set up with 30 other awesome vintage and handmade vendors, food trucks and a fantastic lineup of musicians at Raccoon Creek Market on June 13th 10am-4pm. Free admission and parking.

Please stop by my booth and say hi!

This is just crazy!! All three sold before I got them into my booth this morning!

THANK YOU!! to all of you who have been scooping up bags before I can ask "I wonder if they'll sell?". I am so very grateful!! 💛

I can make a few more of these. There's maybe 4-5 more usable daisies. Once I get the feed dogs on my machine back where they belong, I'll start working on the large daisy tote bag. Stay tuned.... 🌼

🌼 Despite brain and sewing machine issues, I managed to get these finished today. They turned out so pretty! Daisies are just the happiest flowers!

These are a bit bigger than the red star bags at approximately 10"w x 12"h with 3" gusset. I did add an inside pocket for keys and such. Lengthen the strap for crossbody or shorten for shoulder. They'd be great for carrying a small book or notepad along with the usual purse items. You can't help but smile with these!

I'll be taking them to Ellie Mills Mercantile on Friday. 🙂

I was a little bummed I didn't find anything at the French 500 this morning, but the hunt is still fun.

Here is what is what I have at Hope Homestead Farms & General Store. Descriptions with the photos.

I forgot take photos of the jean jackets, so I found photos from when they were at Ellie Mills. One jacket is a medium and the other a large, but they both fit me the same way. Again, please feel free to try them on. Letters and numbers on clothing mean nothing.

If you've not been here, you need to put it on your list. It's a tiny but mighty shop with handmade and food vendors, bulk herbs and teas, cheese, milk, meat and more. They also have events every month. It's just off 35 at the Rio Grande exit.

Follow them on fb!

Today I decided to do a quick photoshoot of what's in my booth here at Ellie Mills Mercantile. To keep this part short, I'll put a brief description with the photos.

I brought in 2 of the 3 red star crossbody bags. They both sold within 2 hours! 😳

The third one is going to Hope Homestead Farms & General Store after I take a junk jaunt through the French 500 tomorrow.

There are aprons, various sized bags and many small things. The jean jacket is an xxl but let's face it, clothing numbers and letters mean nothing. Please feel free to try it on.

Mother's Day is this Sunday! Why buy flowers that die when you can find a unique gift at both Elllie Mills and Hope Homestead. There are 2 days left to shop!
