weekend- Vermont and South End
On Saturday we drove up to Vermont for a wedding. It was a beautiful day. The photo is of the floating bridge in Brookfield.

Sunday was opening day of the South End Open Market. Lots of friends were there!

Amy Burhoe and Beth-

Betsy of Stonehouse Studio-

Brian and Jen- yikes! They are moving to Brooklyn!


Louise and Amy Olsen, who had stopped in right before I got there-


And I saw Katy. She was there, of course, since she is one of the organizers. Amazing to think about- I went to the market early last year- maybe not opening day, but early in the season. I only knew one person there. What a difference a year and a little networking can make- hurray for Boston Handmade!
After the market we went over to Jessica’s open studio. Lots more great artwork to see. A wonderful weekend!

Dear Mimi, I so appreciate your comments on my blog about the pens. I am going to order some right away. I have found painting the faces to be quite challenging and a bit frustrating as it takes such a great deal of time and it so inacurate. I certainly do appreciate hearing from you, as I have such admiration and respect for your work!
This open market in Boston looks wonderful! I might have to plan my next trip to the US so I could go and check it out! Do you sell things there or just brouse? How many vendors are there usually?
Warm wishes from Emily
