Third appointment, tote bags, courthouse step blocks, and a show

Well I made my third appointment for last week. I met my new stylist, and I like her very much! I am having some hair issues - we will leave it at that - so I need to go back and see her again this upcoming week. Meanwhile, I forgot I needed to get more tote bags made - duh! I always need tote bags! LOL! I worked on cutting up the fabric Wanda had sent me and with some others I already had cut out, I sewed together 7 regular sized bags and three drum head bags. The regular bags finish at around 15 x 15 and the drum head bags are around 18 x 18 inches.
I did get three more courthouse step blocks made.
My nephew had a show that was local, so I drove myself to the show. I was there about 2:30 for load in although they had gotten there early and already had the trailer almost unloaded. The venue had a tent and tables set up for merch so that saved us some work
Michael was the headliner and didn't go on stage until 8:15 so I had time to kill. I worked on fixing the comforter. I don't know how many areas I fixed, but I took out 11 of the safety pins I had used to mark damaged areas. As I would fix those areas, I seemed to find at least one or two more places that needed some TLC. Pretty much I am going over it with looking closely at every square inch. It is hard to know how much more places need fixed, but it was a good project to work on while I sat at the merch booth.
The crowd was sparce - maybe 125 - but the band put on a great show.
It was the pizza fest so afterward someone gave us a pizza. After being there since 2:30, by 10:30 everyone was a bit hungry.
I got to bed at 11:45 pm. This morning mom and baby were grooming themselves in my backyard. Baby is almost as big as mom!
If I go anywhere today it will be to get that comforter in the mail otherwise, I have to get projects finished! My worktable is in a very messy state right now full of partially done projects!
Onward I go!
