Thanks to all of our great vendors that participated! We had more foot traffic at this event and there was great coffee provided by Citizen Skate Cafe'.<br />The Indie gals are looking forward to a summer full of fun and crafting. We are planning our next show for October, 2009. We will announce the exact date when we have it. We are hoping to double our attendance at that one!!<br /><br />If you haven't checked out the new 'chicago crafty' site, do it now!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2171758295304387247-5891539498679150128?l=indieinthewindycity.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Indie in the Windy Cityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08570251324666995663noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171758295304387247.post-70646822783953175472009-04-14T12:49:00.000-07:002009-04-14T12:52:58.927-07:00Indie in the Windy City spring event was a success!
