Washington County Fair

I don’t know about other parts of our country, but here in upstate New York summer means county fairs.  Each week there is a new and exciting Fair.  The closest one to me is 10 minutes away.  It is the Washington County Fair.

People flock to it for amusement rides, competitions, and food. There are demolition derbys, musical shows, and tractor pulls.  Families spend time together.  They show their creative skills and their livestock.

Why do I write about this?  I think it is important for children and adults to share things they create.  Sewing, knitting, weaving, spinning, rug hooking shouldn’t be lost arts.   Put something that you have created in your local fair.  Whether you win a blue ribbon or not you are a winner.  You just may be the one who inspires another.

2015 Washington County Fair is August 24-30.

Entries must by done by July 24

Our site has evolved again!

I am happy to announce that we have upgraded the website again to make things even better for everyone!

Our new website is built as a “blog”. This means we can make the content even MORE dynamic, with more frequent additions and updates!

HOW TO USE THE NEW SITE

The sidebar has links to:

• A variety of pages here on the me, myself & I website.
• Blog entries, also called “articles” or “posts” on various topics. Simply click on the topic name to see all the entries for that topic.
• A list of links to the associations and organizations that I belong to
• A list of links to sewing resources that you may find helpful
• Access to the monthly and annual archives. Old articles are automatically archived there each month.
• For those familiar with “news feed” technology, on the site administration section we have links to let you automatically get updates from our site.

Its a lot all at once. All of the old pages are still here & available. But now we have more content than ever before!
