Our 2nd Annual Flaunt Event is on Saturday, 10 am - 4 pm and it is going to be a rockin' good time. There will be awesome vendors selling their amazing handmade wares, fabulous Giveaways and Raffles for some great stuff, fantastic music, good food, need I say more? ok, I will. A portion of the vendors fees and the raffle ticket sales will be donated to Brenner Children's Hospital. Red. Hot, and Blue BBQ, Brewnerds, and Kernel Kustard will be on site serving up some deliciousness. Plus Country singer Sean Mettler will be in the Cow Barn singing his tunes - you are going to love him. Of course, he will have CDs available for you to purchase at the event. Oh, did I mention that Westminster Fabrics sent a truckload of glorious fabric especially for this event - yes they did!! Over 9000 yards that will be available for $5.00/yard. There's more, but I don't want to completely overwhelm you. Just get some rest and plan on hanging out in Reynolda Village all day on Saturday, October 22. I do want to mention that the vendors have been working hard preparing some especially wonderful stuff for this event and that really is the reason why I host this event - to support handmade & local. Be prepared to find some fantastic original items and also note that the majority of the vendors operate on a cash/check basis - so stop at the bank before heading over to the Village. There is not an ATM machine in the vicinity.

The Event itself takes place in the Cow Barn which is located directly across from my shop in Reynolda Village. I will have event specials in the shop as well - 1/2 price quilt kits and fat quarter bundles are just a few deals I have lined up for you. Also, I just took delivery of Amy Butler's new Lark Collection yesterday and will have that available for you to admire and buy. I am feeling a little overwhelmed after writing this post.... Can't wait to see you.
Get rested.
