I have just helped out at a big Craft and Quilt Fair here in our State (Western Australia) it ran for six days , I now have a greater apperication of these shows seeing it from the other side of the counter , the work that goes into them is amazing , I demonstrated this wonderful ruler for working with jelly rolls, makes it so easy , some people would stand and watch a demo two or three times and then tell you they dont even quilt ....beats me .

I did speak to some lovely people , one lady even kindly brought me back a drink , she said I was beinging to sound as if my voice was running out , we finished up exchaning phone numbers as she lives not far from me .
Would I do it again , yes, in a heart beat great fun , but today I have muscles were I did think they were anymore .......just need a couple of days to get over it .

Rest well, you deserve it. Kudos to you for getting out and showing the world a bit of what we love.

Sounds like a mighty effort. 6 days is a long time. I am about to try my first Jelly Roll having bought it recently at a craft shop called Sheoak Cottage in Cummins [an hour + South of where I live] in South Aust.
