We arrived at 8am and set up out booth and by 9am I was packing my quilts up so they wouldn't get wet. Everyone one was looking at me like I was crazy because they didn't think it was gonna rain. 10 minutes later it poured!! Lightning was stricking the ground all around us. I rained for almost 2 hours. My quilts are nice and dry but my pincushoins, pocket tissue holders and a few of the purses got soaked.
They are planning on rescheduling so maybe I can get a few more quilts completed.

Wow Carrie. You have definately been a busy girl. I hope that you can get all of them dried out. You keep safe. And this will give you a chance to make more quilts. :)

Well, another day! Thanks for the pics. Good looking display:)

Bummer, but it will be nice if you finish some more quilts to sell. I am not really into pincushions, but I love yours!

Carrie, your display is beautiful! What lovely quilts, as well as all the other appealing items. You have nothing to worry about! I hope everything dries out ok and you get a nice dry day for the carnival. Thanks for the pictures and keep us posted.

that looks beautiful!!

I love the way you have your display set up. Nice assortment of items. I especially like your pincushion jars. They are sooo cute!! What did you put in the jars?

Wow.. lots of stuff !!

Sow how much were you selling your quilts & things??

Your booth is so nice and inviting. I hate so much for you that it was rained out. I have watched your posts as you have been making so many items for this big day. Your work is all very pretty and you displayed it very well. I like your glass half full vision of doing it again soon and making more items from now till then. Congratulations on a job well done. You won the race eventhough you didn't get to the finish line yet. :thumbup:

I didn't put anything in the jars. I was trying to keep my costs down.

Your booth looked very inviting, such a shame about the weather. Your quilts are beautiful,they are sure to sell

Well the highest priced item was $150.00 and the lowest was 1.00(that was the tissue holders). There was a wide variety of prices.

Thank you everyone! I am bummed about getting rained out so hopefully they can reschedule it.

So sorry you were rained out. You have worked very hard to get the quilts and things done in time. Hope you will have better weather next time.

Thank you but you worked hard too and I appreciate what you did for me.

It was my pleasure to help you.

At least the "cops" didn't show up.

If there had been any quilt police around, no doubt they broke out of the funny farm, gf!

Your booth looked so inviting. I would have been drawn to it if I was there. Sorry you got rained out. Maybe you can finish up some of the things you didn't get done before. Hope you are encouraged by the kind words here on the board. I know they always help me.

Your display was great. Sorry you got rained out. :( That is the kind of booth I would love to go to. You did great!!! I still can't believe how many quilts you made. That is just awesome.

Thank you all for the wonderful compliments on my booth.

Sorry about the rotten weather. Your display is really lovely and your merchandise is beautiful. Hopefully they can reschedule.

Oh wow, that's so fabulous. You're a sweetheart. I hope the sun shines and you sell them all next time.

Sorry you got rained out, but your items look great. Hopefully, the weather will be better for the next go round.

Your booth looked great, I wouldn't have been able to resist it! :thumbup: I'm sorry you got rained out and wishing you better weather next time. :D

OMGoodness Carrie!!!!! I LOVE your booth!!! It's so colorful, and your items are beautiful!!!!!! I'm so sad that you were rained out, but it will give you more time to get some more goodies stitched together! :D :thumbup:

I'm sending you a PM about your pincushion jars!!!! :D

I am so sorry you were rained out - thank goodness you packed up before everything got wet! Here's hoping for a better day :-D :-D

I saw lots of pretty things, sorry about the rain.

Darn that rain. :( Your booth was very inviting & would have brought in the $$. Give yourself a big pat on the back!
Hope the rescheduled date happens soon so you won't have to stress out for long.

If I went I would have bought a pin cushion. The quilts are beautiful, stay dry!

Sorry you didn't get a chance to sell anything but I know you will do great when you set up again. Love the pincushions.

Carrie - Your booth looked amazing with the way you displayed everything!
I am sure you will do quite well on the re-scheduled date.
BTW...I think the rain was God's way of giving you time to finish off some more of those quilts! (remember, everything happens for a reason...)

Oh yes you did you put love and hard work in those jars...your quilts and all the items look wonderful!!!
