I found the Mother Lode! Not really, but it felt so at the time.

Not the best picture...sorry.

For those of you who have heard me mention this more than once bear with me for a minute. With the Yarmouth Clam Festival growing larger on my apron horizon, I am beginning the attempt to line up my duckies. Not in the sewing department, since I am plodding away on that constantly (or so it seems), but in general preparation. This will not be my typical farmer's market setup but something that I'll have to step up a notch with a tighter presentation and an attempt at "classy". This is something that comes easily to my daughter, Zoe, and she has a vision for how she wants to present her jewelry to the public. Me, I struggle with the basics and have a goal of presenting my aprons as efficiently and low-maintenance a way as possible.

To this end, I've made a bit of progress. Yesterday, while browsing a local flea market after Sunday breakfast at my favorite breakfast spot, I found a spiral clothing rack for sale. The vendor, one of my favorites because of her love of everything vintage, gave me a good deal and that rack came home with me. It is totally awesome, has a small footprint (very important when limited to a 10x10' space) and I should be able to hang about 50 aprons upon its descending spiral. Whaoo!

Now I want another one.....

Let us pause for a moment for this commercial interruption….

Holy Cripes, it's almost Mother's Day!
