Thank you!

I'd like to thank all those who stopped by the PAW's Embroidery booth and said hi this year at the Alameda County Fair.  I enjoyed meeting and talking with you.  Your interaction helped make the long hours of each day bearable.

I'd also like to thank my sister Elayne and my husband Dave for pitching in and helping.  I couldn't have spent 17 long days in a roll, in that small booth if it weren't for their wonderful help.

The hit of the show were the Zoobies.  They're uniqueness and flexibility put smiles on the faces of adults and children alike.  I was actually surprised at the adults that bought a Zoobie to keep for themselves and not give to a child.  I thought I was the only one who saw how great they would be to keep in a car.  

It felt great making everyone happy.  That's what I'm all about.  I figure you can go through life making everyone around you miserable or for the same amount of energy spent, you can make people laugh or be happy.  I vote for the smiles.

Again, it was wonderful meeting you all and thank you for the new business you brought to PAW's Embroidery after the fair ended.

Alameda County Fair

I am so sorry to the person who scolded me for not checking my blog daily.  She/he is absolutely correct.   My only defense is I had shoulder surgery 6 weeks ago so have been dealing with that painful encounter, add to that I've been working day and night getting products ready for the Alameda County Fair.  There just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day.

Please bear with me.  My hours in my booth (PAW's Embroidery) are from 8 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. which means I leave here at 7 a.m. and get home around 11 p.m.  Today I'm running a hair late but felt I should check in on the blog.

Here are a couple of pictures of the Large Tote Bags I made in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness.  These two designs can be put on just about anything but so far women prefer the large black tote and the pink & cream canvas tote, so I'll quote the prices for those.  I will also take a bit of the proceeds from each sale and make a donation to breast cancer research.

The Ribbon Heart or the Ribbon Angel is $30 on the large black tote.  The Ribbon Heart or the Ribbon Angel is $35 on the pink & cream canvas tote.

Please remember, you can either call me at 925-736-1775 or email me at pawsembroidery@yahoo.com.  Just make sure you put embroidery question in the message line.

Again, I apologize for not checking in sooner and I promise to do better in the future.

PICNIC BLANKETS

I've got these really great picnic blankets.  They're fleece on one side and 200 Denier nylon on the other which makes them water resistent.  They're great for picnics and sporting events. Just keep one or two in your car.  They're handy for your kids sporting events like soccer, baseball, rugby, football, etc.  You can toss them on the grass and because of the outer coating, they keep the weeds and stickers to a minimum.

EMS, Firefighter or Police Officer?

These are handy to keep in your car in case of an accident in wet weather. If you're off duty, they'll help keep your victim warm and dry until a rig can reach you.  

Size is 50x60

Polurethane coating.

Folds for easy storage.

Carry handles for easy transporting. 

Two velcro pockets.

COLORS:  Charcoal, Black, Red, Forest Green, Navy and Royal Blue

Price for Blanket:  $20

Designs:

Hummingbird - $ 30 - 4.32" x 3.64" 20 thread changes 30,000 stitches

Butterfly on Flower - $15 - 4.34# x 3.39" 7 thread changes 15,000 stitches

Sport logo - $10 - approximately 3 x 3 (varies depending on design) 8,000 to 10,000 stitches. You pick a sport.  Chances are I've got a logo.  If not, we'll create something for you.

LARGE AIR TOTE BAG - Adults & Kids

This is a large tote bag I created for Sean (my future grandson) .  It's very large 19.5 x 14.5 x 6.5.

600 Denier Polyester.

Zippered Front Pocket.

Interior Hanging Pocket.

High Cuffed Bottom with Fabric Wrapped pipping.

Clinched Herringbone Webbing for easy carrying.

It comes in Black, Royal Blue and Tangerine.

The bag itself is $15.00 then add the cost of embroidery which varies depending on which design you choose.  

DESIGN:

This particular design is $35 because it's almost 6"x6" and 35,000 stitches with 19 thread changes.

USES:  

GROCERIES

This particular tote will carry two huge gallons of milk and have plenty of room for tons of other items.  The biggest drawback to the Air Tote bag would be overloading it so you can't pick it up.

CHILD'S TRAVEL BAG

As a child's bag, put toys in it and leave it in the car.  That saves you from constantly packing and unpacking the car.  The added advantage is the toys in the bag are for 'special trips' only. 

GENERAL SHOPPING BAG

I personally like to take this bag to the mall with me.  I get tired of carrying various size plastic store bags around with me.  This way, I put my ATM card, cash and driver's license in the inside pocket.  I leave my purse in the car and just continue to add the store purchases in the Air Tote.  I end up with only one bag to worry about.

SIMON'S TOWEL

Boy am I a putz.  I hit a button and my original blog post disappeared.  I started this post, got interrupted by Dave, checked my email, came back to the post and there was my original item.  Boy am I one confused puppy or what?  LOl!

Anyway, here's a photo of a towel I created for Simon.  He's the son of a friend of ours in Australia.  He's a musician so I really loved putting this together for him.

I am so lucky to have a job I love.  Granted it's in my later years but fun none the less.  Nothing like a baby boomer starting a second career.
