six:one designs 1st event

I have been so busy preparing for my first event, I haven't had time to blog! Between my real job and my "love" job I can't keep up! BUT I am not complaining!! I love to be busy and I love to be going all the time. So, Saturday was my first event in Hickory. I have my bags at a store in Noda (Charlotte, NC) and have been to an art crawl there a few times but Saturday was my first real showing in Hickory.

Unfortunately, Andy was out of town so I had to recruit some help! Thanks to my awesome dad for bringing tables and helping me set-up the tent and organize my bags. My mom was there as well, stuffing bags so they could "sit up". Overall, I think it looks pretty good. I have some ideas for my next time...crossing my fingers there is a next time!

I had some help with cutting and ironing the last few weeks. Honestly, had I not had this help...I would have never been able to whip out 60 bags. I feel good about my inventory and a little break but will back in my office/sewing room sooner than later.

My best friend Erika came and helped me all day! Well, at least until the storm blew in.

Overall, the day was a success. I was disappointed in the weather. I had hoped to be out there until 7pm but when the lightening started, we had to pack up.
