Paducah,meeting Dyehards

Today was the last day of the show. I'm sad it's over but happy I was able to enjoy a wonderful week vending. I meet so many people from all over the world. I was asked to vend at a few other venues. I had people saying they wished they had found my handdyes first they liked them so much better then what they had bought at the convention center.

I also got to meet a gal from the dyehard runoff group I belong to she lives here in KY. I got to see another gal from the dyehard group she is from CO I have meet her almost a year ago. It's always fun to have the Dyehards get together.
It was also good to see a friend I haven't seen in at least 5 years she now lives in Mississippi. There are a few pictures posted below of the gals from my different dyeing groups.

Tomorrow I head to Ohio for my class with Carol Soderlund and looking forward to seeing friends I have meet in her class previously. Look for pictures in the next week of my adventure there.

Paducah,meeting Dyehards

WOW it's been a busy week and today is already Friday. Only today and tomorrow to go and then on to Ohio for a class with Carol Soderlund at The Crow Barn. Many people didn't know that we were even there (The Shops on Park Ave) but they did find us. The first day was slow the second day picked up and yesterday was really good. This is an adventure I will never forget and hope to vend here in Paducah again in the years to come. My dh came with me but ended up sick so I have been going it alone yesterday and again today. He does come to releave me for lunch but other then that I am alone. The gals in the booth across from me are really nice and if I need a bathroom break they are happy to watch my booth.

Below are pictures of my booth and also pictures of me and meeting my online friends from my Dyeing group. It's always great to meet in person someone you talk with almost daily on line. Now you have a voice to put with a name and it makes it much more personal talking to them. The Dyehards are a group of women that enjoy dyeing fabric, swapping fabric and just talking to each other. We come from all over the world, The Netherlands, England, France, Canada and ofcourse the US. Several have meet in the past and we are always meeting in different places.

I did get to run through the main show on Tuesday evening but like I said run. We had only 2 hours to see everything and that just wasn't enough time.
