Oh my goodness!  If anyone is still reading this blog, please accept my apologies on my lack of posts!  Things have been crazy for cheewawamomma designs! 

First off, I had the White River Winnie the Pooh Festival in August, which was super-fun!  Then, I had the Wawa Fall Fair, and now I’m the featured artist for the next week at the Gitchee Goomee Gallery in beautiful Wawa, Ontario!  Add to that my long list of custom orders, my daughter going to school for the first time, family visits, and general life stuff! And what do you get?  A dead blog, a stressed out momma, and no listings in the Etsy shop!

So, to give you a taste of what I’ve been up to, I’ve included several pics of my folk art, which is at the gallery right now, and my booth at Winnie the Pooh Fest.  Later this week (it’s in PEN in my agenda book folks!), I will be posting the sheep pattern, and a few other pics of neat stuff.

Gotta run.  My daughter, who, BTW, won Student of the Month for Respect and Manners today, will be getting off the bus soon!  Oh, and if you have some moments to spare, and you want to check out some really neat jewelry, visit my Etsy shop!  Pics to be posted to the old gallery on the website as well this week.

TTFN!

Well, the Byhand Festival in Wawa was a smashing success!  My creations were well-received, and I had a ball talking to so many great people.  Now I’m working on some of my orders, but for now, enjoy the pics and I’ll post some more of my adventures in crochet and crafting soon.

Special thanks to a lovely girl named Tara who bought one of my hats.  She looked so smashing in it, I had to take a picture!  Isn’t she gorgeous?

Back again soon!

I’ve just updated my photo gallery on Flickr with some of my past folk art creations.  It brought back some great memories, and I can see how my tastes have changed over the years.  Enjoy!

Well, my big weekend has come to an end and I had a blast!  While I was unable to attend the actual Highway Opening celebrations due to an ill child, I was privileged to be a part of Wawa’s Fall Fair and Artisan Tour.  My creations were received well, and I wanted to thank everyone who stopped by the studio and my table at the fair.  While every purchase was greatly appreciated, the encouraging words and praise were simply overwhelming.  Thank you so much! 

High on the success of the weekend, I’m looking forward to filling the orders, and creating some new items for the November Byhand Festival in Wawa, and for my Etsy shop.  Please check in again soon!

Thanks again everyone!!
