3 Fine Grains

Show Time

Kymberley Fraser - Tuesday, September 29, 2009
It's been quite a long time since I've blogged about my 3 Fine Grains and I apologize.  I have a very good excuse though...... I've been working diligently making creations for my upcoming shows. I've never done a show before and I have to admit that I'm quite nervous, yet I'm so excited to meet people face to face.  I feel so blessed to have been accepted to these veteran shows selling among some of the finest antique dealers in the country.  My first show is on October the 10th called "Remnants of the Past" in Nipomo, California.  It's a beautiful show in the middle of a farm with amazing dealers from all over.  My second show is called The C.A.L.M Show in Santa Barbara on October 16th, 17th, and 18th.  This show is an all antique show with no reproductions allowed. Right up my alley!!! This one was a really hard one to be accepted to and I got in.
 I've been busy making up many new designs to showcase at these two great shows.  I will be featuring many new pillow designs including some french postal sack pillows from the early to mid 1900's,  more of my well loved French Stork pillows and even a few fabulous French Roosters.  But my all time favorite is the new German grain sack pillows that I've made up using some of my finest "authenticated original" sacks.   I will have a good selection of light to dark tones with one of a kind markings including some with horses and crowns.    I have several new ottomans and chairs, framed german grain sacks with horses, and even some german grain sacks that I've used to make tapestries hanging from iron rods.  I am excited to introduce my newest items which are throw blankets made from the German grain sacks with a beautiful chenille on the back.  By the time my shows have ended I will be coming home to my shipment of approximately 250 German grain sacks.  I have so much to look forward to in the month of October.  It's as if Christmas is coming early for 3 Fine Grains.

How is it that I missed that you have a blog? My goodness ~ when do you find the time my dear Kymberley? Your creativity and energy level is just amazing. I attended both the Remnants of the Past show and the CALM Santa Barbara show and your newest creations are fabulous. What will you think of next...I don't know but I cannot wait to see what you do with your new shipment. I have seen and touched a lot of sacks out there and none compare to the authentic quality of your collection. ~Jermaine~

I found you via The Inspired Room. I'm just beginning to look through all the lovely items you have. You have such a wonderful story! And gorgeous items! I've been, well, sort of coveting your pillows. :-) Looking forward to learning more about you and your products.

Where was your show in Santa Barbara? We have a home down there and were even in the area. I'm bummed that I missed you! Love the inspiration and beauty you share with your goods!
