I am thankful for the wonderful friends and family in my life, and my awesome little craft business. We are all truly blessed! Thank you, God!
Have a blessed Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!
Stupid Chair!
Life is crazy busy right now with the holidays, work, family. One thing I DON’T need is my work chair messing with me. Lol! 🙂
As I sit sewing a sock monkey on my machine, my chair drops me down a tad bit. I stop, feeling the descent. I start sewing again. Boop! I drop down just a bit more. Now I KNOW I felt it that time. Ok, fine. Let’s get this monkey done, already. Boop! Boop! I am practically sitting on the floor now. For the love of Pete! One more distraction.
Break over, that is my funny little rant for the day! Back to making sock monkeys.
Have a wonderful Thursday!

St. Ann’s Holiday Gift Fair 2018 – Thank you!
Thank you to everyone that stopped by last Saturday to take a look and purchase a gift from our booth! Thank you, also, to everyone running this wonderful event and my fellow vendors. Again, I met the nicest people and learned so much from them as well. I hope to see everyone back again in 2019.
Have a fantastic week, Everyone!

Fall Fair to Remember 2018 – Thank You!
Before it gets any later I need to say “Thank You” to everyone who came to “Fall Fair to Remember” and stopped by the giggleFritz and Co. booth to say “hello” or purchase an item. Thank You!
We met so many great people, both customers and other vendors. There were so many great products made by local artists. We look forward to next year’s fair already!
Thank you, sincerely, for stopping by and shopping local!

Machine Sewing Day – Day 15
The countdown continues: 15 days until “Fall Fair to Remember”. It is machine sewing day. I need to crank out some work on the machine, so I will make today’s post brief. I am taking a short break and then back to work before I pick up DD from preschool. Almost nothing gets done after that, Lol!
Need some thinking food and generic cinnamon crunch cereal is ideal. Love it! Thanks, Aldi!
Back to work! Our Milwaukee Brewers play postseason today at 4:07 pm and I need something to hand-stitch while I cheer them on. Go Brewers!!

Happy Fall y’all – Day 16
Happy Fall! Here we are in October and I am loving every minute of it!
I have been counting down the days until my next craft fair, “Fall Fair to Remember” and I am currently at 16 days. I have been sewing my fingers off and doing my best to fill my booth on October 19th and 20th. There is not enough time in the day for everything I want to get done!
Back to work!
Have a great day!

Time Keeps on Slippin’…
…into the future. Man, it sure does! I was foolish to think, once the school year started back up and DD went back to school, I would have more time. WRONG!! I did not even touch my computer or sewing this weekend. It’s difficult to make and sell things without using those key tools.
Even though it has been busy, I am loving every minute of this time of year. There is so much to do and I enjoy nearly everything FALL! In spring DD and I planted one sunflower in our garden. The sunflower is in it’s prime right now. The day that it bloomed was rainy and gloomy, but looking at that bright, beautiful sunflower brought us so much joy! We went out and snapped a few photos last week. Below is a picture of our prized sunflower!
Anyway, I am back to work on this very beautiful, fall-like Monday. Much to do and excited to do it! There’s a new Note-to-Self Mini in the Shop. Check it out!
Have beautiful Monday!

Post Stoughton Coffee Break Fest 2018
Good Morning!
Last weekend I packed up the giggleFritz and Co. booth, grabbed two sisters, and headed over to the Coffee Break Fest craft fair in Stoughton, WI. This is our fourth year participating in the craft fair. We had a great time and sold a lot of stuff!
The day went by very quickly! We didn’t even head over to the car show this year. However, we did HEAR the car show. I don’t know how they judge the old cars, but there must be an “engine revving” category. Boy was that loud! One of these years I would love to attend this festival as a guest and look at all the old and new cars, tractors, and motorcycles.
We sampled some wonderful coffee! (I will add a pic of this years taste testing cup at a later time.) Autumn Pearl Beauty Boutique and Coffee Bar was the winner this year. They had amazing coffee! It’s difficult to pick which is the best.
It was another great year at this amazing coffee festival! This is a great community. The people working the festival, the other booth vendors, and the festival-goers are wonderful people. If you get a chance to visit, go. I guarantee you will feel at home and welcomed!
I am off to do important giggleFritz things. Have a wonderful day!
