This year I decided to finally spring for a new vinyl banner for renegade. I had been using a felt banner that I made by hand a few years ago, but the torrential downpour from last year warped it a bit, so I figured it was time for an upgrade.

I’m super happy with how it turned out! Look how big it is!

Ok, enough chit chat. Back to the sewing machine!

I’ve been working my butt off in preperation for this year’s Renegade Craft Fair. I had short notice, so I’ve been trying to cram in as much sewing / gluing / jewelry making as I can.

I need to tag all of the bags that I’ve made

I also made a whole bunch of my little lapel pins
I love seeing them all bunched together, like a little army of apple and heart pins.

I just got an email from the Renegade Craft Fair people, and they offered me a spot at this year’s fair!! June 6 & 7

I was put on a waiting list when I first applied. (and I was super bummed) I’ve done the fair two years in a row, so I had a feeling that I was going to get wait listed this time around … but a spot opened up!

I’m so excited!!! Time to get started on my “master list”. I have less than a month to get ready!
