More work more ideas


I sold the wrap skirt the same day Sharon bought her other skirt. I was happy as I needed that boost. I have started reading a book on internet sales and hope to get some more ideas. I think I will do some shows this fall and see how that goes. I am not one for craft shows but I'm thinking about it. I am now working on a big project for Sharon's friend Gail. I am remaking a dress she really loves and I think it is going to be a challenge. I am going to look for fabric today or tomorrow and get a pattern too. Also, I finished a skirt for Suzy although I may still have to make a few alterations. Hope to get it on the site tomorrow. Anyway here is a skirt I made for Sharon. I love it!

Still plugging away!


Still at work adding to the inventory of my store. I made a skirt for my sister Sharon and sent it 2 days ago. She should get it today. Can't wait to see what she says. I am still working on the real focus of my shop. I had thought children's clothing maybe or babies or ladies. I have looked at bags and wallets. I need to settle on a focus and work on that more. I am going to explore other shops more to see their focus and if they have a wide focus or not. I love creating and that's why I'm working on this. I have added a few new things, the blue and green kyoko dress and the cowgirl skirt, both of which I love. Suzy wants a skirt so I am going to the fab shop this weekend to find something she would like. I also want to work on my sewing space to make it more user friendly. (Me=user)! Maybe I will take before and after pics of that and post them. In the meantime I am having a Yart Sale at my site and I want to start a Facebook page. I'll let you know how that goes!
