One Step Behind!

I woke up this morning thinking about how hard is was to take an inventory of the items we are taking to the show last year! It was just way to busy downstairs in the classroom, so I texted Marie and we talked about taking an inventory upstairs, writing all the numbers down as the items went into the bin. That way we would hand her a piece of paper or two and she could take it from there. I got to the Center 15 minutes later than I had hoped and decided to go to the annex and pull the tubs for the inventory only to find that someone had already gotten them and taken them upstairs! I told Carol about the idea of doing a paper inventory that Marie and I had talked about only to find that they were already doing it! I grabbed my paper and went up to lend a hand.

Once we had the inventory done and loaded in the car it was time to enter it all into Marie's laptop.

Soon it was time for lunch and Show and Tell. Jenny brought a skein of yarn that she recently finish from deep stash. She combined a colorful fiber that she had had for ages with some white BFL, layering it on a blending board and making it into rolags. It feels good to use things up and get beautiful results.

Shannon finished her red and white runners and had them ready for the show. Funny thing is that the runners were sold to us weavers before they made it to the inventory! Shannon also brought in a new shuttle that is so small that it is perfect for the end of a warp when you really don't have enough room for a regular sized shuttle.

Susan brought in some souvenirs from her trip. There were a couple of skeins of yarn one was alpaca wool and the other was from a sheep that eats seaweed! Then there was this lovely scarf!

Linda brought in some rugs that feature our favorite pattern "Chicken Tracks".

Mark brought in a scarf he made for the Grandbaby who is in need of protection from the cold weather!

Right after Show and Tell several of us went outside to load the supplies we need for the booth into the waiting van and a few cars. Unfortunately, I neglected to get a picture of the loaded vehicles! I will be taking some pictures as we set the booth up on Thursday, I hope to do a post over the weekend of the booth set up and take down. That is it for today, Tina for all
