Lazy Days of Summer??? If you know where they are - share the news with us all, OK? I'm home and recovered from the www.nowsewing.net webisode taping and the ASG Conference/Show in Chicago. All unpacked, filled oodles of orders waiting, re-stocked and re-cuperated - I think. It was all lots of fun - certainly the webisode was an experience I'll never forget. Read all about it - including the trick of the professional make-up artist! Guess where she started on my face? Not that my makeup was professionally done, but I needed a current professional photo for this and other shows, so you can check that out on the front page of my site too. :) You'll just have to read all about these events on my BLOG. You'll also read some great news about what's happen' in the sewing world at my Blog - including a rundown of Pati Palmer's talk on Friday noon 'Dreams on Paper'. Though I strive to keep my Blog all about sewing - from time to time you'll get some other life 'wisdom' or inspiration - you'll find a link to a great discussion about 'Raising Unselfish Kids in a Selfish World' in my posts from July 18 as well. You can even read my feelings about Oprah's expert's "10 Things a Woman MUST have in her Wardrobe". Find it all here at my Blog. Take the time to add a valuable Comment and I'll thank you with a copy of my notes from Linda Lee's (The Sewing Workshop) Cool Edges Class. Bribery? Yep! I want to get some 'conversation' rolling on my Blog. Fashion Club Members - watch for this in your mailbox soon. Fashion Club Members who comment on my Blog by August 31, 2008 will receive a 15% discount on any order.
A shot of my double booth - this take 2 people most of a day to set up - and about 3 hours to tear down - what fun! Thanks - Darlene, for all your great help!!!
It has taken lots of time to update my STASH SALE INVENTORY - but I've got it done - including my Clearance Designer Button Stock. I even un-earthed quite a few new 'Stash' items - and found some items hiding in the "Unassigned" category on my website- so be SURE to go take a look... My smile thanks you - as I've informed my accountant hubby (over and over again) that the $$ I make from this sale is going into my new tooth veneer fund! (Mine are 20- years old - covering up the center front tooth gap). New Stuff: Pro Interfacings from my friend Pam Erny - a limited amount at savings (pages 3 and 4 of the interfacing category) , Glass Head Japanese Pins, Japanese Snips...all just limited inventory at sale pricing - hurry over NOW!
