Lansdowne Farmers Market, year 2

Where has my brain been? Water logged maybe. The rain in Philly seems to only increase as we get farther into the summer. Last weekend I was the artist of the week at the Lansdowne Farmers Market. I have to say, the first year of the market was a little meager, but now, in year 3, they are the happening place to be on Saturday mornings.

I sold about the same as I did last year, which should help significantly in getting the a/c fixed in the old automobile! It was a darn hot day but I managed to have 2 customers pose in one extra layer. Strangely it was the last 2 dresses of my much coveted Frida fabric.

none of my quilts or my mother-in-law’s blankets sold, people were sort of repelled by the idea of them actually. Next time I hope to have a slot in September where people can think about fall and winter… and buy the blankets…

Lansdowne Farmers Market

Thanks to Grace who found me on etsy and reached out to have me as Artist of the Week at the Lansdowne Farmers Market. I had my very own tent and met many many neighbors I didn’t know before.

I snuck this picture at the beginning of the day. By then end I had sold the blue quilt, all but two of the onesies and more than half of the dresses. I made 3 times what I was expecting to make and my inventory has been gutted. So, obviously I have to head straight to the fabric store to stock up.

No I didn’t plan that 3 dress/quilt color coordiation, I only noticed the matches right now. My brain is doing obsessive sorting without me!
