Well, I'll bee...

...how time flies! The year is almost half over and I have installed a Christmas Count Down clock. Sorry, guys, but if I am not careful, I'll be facing October with nothing to show for. This shall serve as a daily reminder for me to get busy with some serious crocheting. (NOTE: I have a little survey request for you at the end of this post.)



My friend, who makes reborn baby dolls, has already reserved her space for the "Flatlanders" arts and crafts festival that takes place in town every September (around Labor Day) and she's saving some room in her booth for me to display some of my crocheted things. I also would love to be a vendor in the Honey Bee Festival this year (first weekend in October) and will need a large inventory of crocheted bees, like these:

Shelf sitter bees (above) about 5" tall - bee for hanging (right) about 5" long

Above: shelf sitter bee (left) Patriotic hanging bee (center) and more "personalized" shelf sitter bees. Can be anywhere from 4" to 7" tall.

and here's my most favorite bee of all:

Yaaaawn and streeeech before his photo shoot!

My Bumble Gizzy!

I'd like to take a little, unofficial survey and find out what you would be most likely to buy (either for yourself or as a gift) to help me to decide which bees to make the most of for my upcoming arts and crafts event(s).

Thanks everyone, I'd really appreicate it! You can just write your answer in the comments here.
