all our bags are packed...

... and we are ready to go! well not all of our bags but darn tootin' a lot of them. i was preparing our shipment to the show today (canyou say 600 lbs of stuff) and boy did my arm muscles get a workout! i was lifting 48 lb boxes in 105F texas heat to get them to fedex and on their way. but it is almost all done. YAY! and to celebrate, here is a peek at some of our new velvet rick rack!

we are coming out with 6 colors and this ain't no cheesy flocked rick rack - this is 100% smooth-like-butta stuff. in fact, i am caressing a roll in my hand right now and it purrs. if i could, i would knit me a sweet sweater out of this rick rack... too bad i am not a great knitter.

hope ya'll are having a great weekend!
