Valentines day's a-coming...




I've always hated Valentines day... In all my various relationships, none of them coincided with Valentines so I never had a date, and then the people who do have dates all are so cute that it's sickening... What? Me bitter? Hmmph.




but seriously, I've worked for florist on Valentines, and the panicked phone calls and the general stress level is generally just pitiful...




On another subject entirely, we have been listing some small hand-crochet patches on ebay... just for the fun of it. Mom makes them up while she's watching TV. gives her something to do... Not making much money off them... but they're fun...


Most of the little appliques on ebay are made of 4-ply knitting worsted... which makes them thick and fuzzy... and uncomfortable on a back pocket, kind of like a little hard pillow on your butt... these are made of bedspread cotton... tiny thread that has a nice look to it.
Anyway... if you're interested go to the store listings
The big appliques are .99 each and the small ones like the stars are 3 / .99.
They do look good on jeans, denim jackets , that sort of thing...
Will be heading out to the flea market stall today... Evidently I sold a bunch of Franciscan plates and since I moved the stall from the back to the front, I still haven't got it looking like I want it... I've got to get it looking decent to boost the sales... and I don't really know what I'm going to do about the clothes I have up there... no place for a rack and no wall space since one side of the booth is a great big window...
I'll figure out something I suppose...
