Just for fun, (and since it was a wonderful show  in our own hometown!) we set up our Booth recently at An Affair of the Heart Show in Tulsa.

We brought our custom minaudieres, artwork, studio handbags, melamine dinner ware,custom clocks, patterns, and of course-
my fabric!

The minaudiere table was a focal point, and the little custom clutches were snapped up along with our custom handbags.
I went home everynight and happily made more minaudieres!

If you would like to shop these cute little clutches, click here to see a few in our webstore.

This is Brittany’s favorite! A minaudiere covered with a contemporary graphic fabric in turquoise and black we called,  Electric Slide.
Appreciate all your help Brittany, and Anne too!

Below is darling Molly, daughter of Brittany’s friend Julia, who loved our Coquette Bag!

 This is my cousin’s wife, Mary holding her new Original…one I made using my own fabric!
Thank you Mary, Diane, Iris, Rosemary, and Patricia too!

This is a good time to thank ALL my friends and family who stopped by, visited, and helped me! Got to meet and make many new friends too!

Thanks to Mike who brought my Mom by so she could see one of my show booths finally, and to Mike also for helping schlep my stuff in the extreme heat.
Also my sister in law Deanna who agreed to be paid only in fabric for her expert sales services on Saturday!

Your support means so much to me, and I thank you all bunches!

I will be back at An Affair of the Heart, Tulsa next July!

The show is this weekend so we are busy little bees getting everything ready on time! We’d love to meet some of our blog readers in person, so please stop by and say hello~

The event includes something for everyone – a juried quilt show, free guided tours of the quilt display, a vendor faire, quilt appraisals, several lectures, and more. If you’re in the area please come by and support this fun and educational event! If you aren’t able to make it to the show, stay tuned to the blog for pictures next week!
