Saturdays market was busy and a good day all around. I seem to be able to tolerate that heat outside.The heat isn't bothering me at all, which is good cause I have to be out there in it at the market.
I've been doing some weaving for the church and seems that now I am almost out of warp, so that means I will have to take a day or two and re-warp, all three of my looms. I have an order in for my favorite colors of warp, but of course some is on back order. We must all be patient. That might give me a chance to get some cloth cut and sewn for the next batch of rugs I will need to weave.
There isn't much to do but keep up with the orders now. I will get ahead of the game in a month or two.
I am pretty sure I will need to weave some extra long rugs now, since my last long one was purchased over the weekend. Now everything is 50inches long or less.
It is hard to know what people will need, but I am going to be doing my best to make some longer lengths before the end of the market in October.
Guess I need to get back to weaving today. The time of day passes by fast. Before I know it, it will be 10 p.m.
Keep on weavin'
Stay cool!

July 2 market day
Market day on July 2nd was super fun. We had tons of people visit our display at the Farmers Market. It was especially busy due to the other festivities that were going on and were going to be taking place during the late afternoon.
I had a lot of sales and even took some orders for some new rugs. That means I will be weaving into the night.
On Tuesday the 5th, in the morning I sewed all of my brown corduroy for an order. by noon I was finished sewing and got my van ready to take off for the Tuesday market.
I arrived at 2:10 and set up. after that I started cutting apart my long ribbons of corduroy and trimming the "tails" off of the angle sewings. I actually got all of my shuttles full before the end of the market at 6 p.m. Even with the sales and speaking with customers who came to visit with me.
I have to do some weaving, so I'd better get busy.
