wow, that b&w pic of tristan looks a lot like gary did when he was that age. maybe being b&w makes it look older or something - i've never seen it so well in the color photos - but i studied it wondering if there was someway you put gary's face on that child. -e.

Who made the apron? Love it! Looks like Reino is enjoying himself! What did everyone make for the Mines and Pines and what sold the best.
Wish we could have attended! Love the pictures!

Diane made: placemats (some sold), towels (sold most of them, even made another one Saturday night as a special request and sold it on Sunday), afghan
Anita made: pillows, cross stiches,purses, cards, stockings, christmas decorations
Heather made: signs (not a seller), jars (not a seller), dishrags (some sold), pillows (some sold), cards (few sold)
Jen made: dolls (not a seller), cross stiches
Paula (Laurie's friend) made: purses (seller), jewelry (some sold)

I can't remember much else. Hope I didn't miss too much, but others can add in to.

Finally got around to reading more
of the comments. I think clocks would have sold if the numbers he first ordered would have come in.
They were back ordered for so long that he finally had to order something and it didn't look good on that small maple leaf or even the Minnesota shape. Then those first ordered arrived. He thinks he will take off the other face,
sand it down and install the new one and re gloss them. If anyone
decides to have another sale perhaps they can go into that one.
