My friend from Etsy


I met the nicest person from my work on Etsy. Her name is Karen Beyer and she is a professional photographer. We met because she place an order for a dress for her daughter. She then sent me a bunch of beautiful pictures of her daughter in the dress which I have put on my website. She is also a talent graphic artist and she designed the banner for my etsy shop. Thank you Karen!
Her website is www.karenbeyerphotography.com
Here is one of the lovely pictures of her daughter in one of my dresses. I hope to do more work for Karen and her daughter in the future:)

Cool stitching!


I have never been big into embroidery but I found the coolest patterns ever when I was reading the ALA (American Library Assoc.) newsletter! Yes, I work as a librarian by day and while perusing the newsletter I came across this amazing article about a shop called "Sublime Stitching". She was featured in the article because she made some neat embroidery patterns of sexy librarians! Yes, we can be sexy!!! She has a spot on the Makers Market website if you would like to check her out. She also has patterns for medical supplies and meats! Awesome! Here is a cool pic of her librarians.

New seasons New designs


Time...don't we all wish we had more of it? I look at my to-do list and just shake my head. There is a baby on the way, due in May and a wedding to plan, July 10th. Wedding showers, baby showers, bridesmaids dresses, reception plans, a crib for my house Oh and also, I still have to work full time and try to keep my Etsy business running!! Life is great isn't it? Really, I am thankful I am so busy with these wonderful things and wonderful people, I just like to rant occasionally!
New designs, that is what I would really like to work on in my business. I made a new pillowcase style dress that is getting some interest and I really want to try a new style baby dress for Easter/Spring/Summer time. That is next on the agenda, in the meantime, check out a new Etsy shop YummieTummies.etsy.com run by my friend Dawn. So cute!
