A Gorgeous Morning!!

What an incredible day for so many reasons. The sun is shining, the temperature should be in the high 80's and life is good. With school taking up so much of my focus this year, I'm excited to get back to sewing. I've missed creating and playing with fabric.

What else have I been doing? We moved about three years ago, and I'm finally getting around to painting the remaining three rooms in the house. I've finished my youngest's room, and am now working on a extra room we're using for a den and laundry folding area. That one will have pale blue walls and Amy Butler fabric for the valance to match the espresso colored desk and furniture.

This weekend once I'm done painting I'll be sewing two commissioned messenger bags for two lovely Jr. High girls. I will have to post photos when they are done...the girls too of course! Until then...

I'm back!!!

Ok, I know I've been away for a while...what happened to me? Life...is pretty much the answer to that! For those of you who don't know, I am an adult college student in addition to a full time marketing manager and owner of my website business. This has been my senior year of school and it's been crazy. On top of that my day job has been impacted by the economy and my workload has increased to cover our downsizing. However, I'm thrilled to say that in December I graduate and will be done with my four year long school journey!! Woohoo

So, what does that mean? That means I will be able to get back to the business. I have bunches of goodies all made up but not on the site yet. These include handy zipper bags for things like your Ipod, cords, coupons, whatever! I also have gorgeous new shabby chic fabric shopping bags...yes, these are ready, but not on the site. I'm working on it!! Also, I will be posting at least once a week now on the blog again, so please stop by and check in. I promise to have some new contests and other goodies to reward you ;-) Thanks to all my devoted pals who've stuck with me!!
