Big things around the corner…

It’s appears I’ve been neglectful of my sewing over the past 2 weeks.  However, that’s not the case.  Last week we were in Disney World.  We had a much needed, wonderful family vacation.  That place is magical every single time we go.  It doesn’t get old – even for Matt and me! 

While we were gone, sewing was still on my mind.  I took a ton of fabric with me and cut it out at night after the girls had gone to bed.  What was I cutting out?  Well, I am about to open a store on www.sewcurly.bigcartel.com selling my snack bags and a few other things.  In order to be as prepared as possible, I’ve tried to cut out a lot of my material so I will be ready to sew the bags when orders come in.  I also needed to make some sample bags so that I could photograph them.  This whole process is a lot more work than I expected, but I am loving every minute of it.  It’s very fulfilling!  I’ll be sure to post when the store goes live, which will hopefully be later this week. 

Meanwhile, here’s a picture of the girls in Minnie Mouse’s house.  Of course they noticed the sewing machine right away!

Also, be sure to take a peek at http://www.thetraintocrazy.com/2011/01/m.html  Andrea picked me as one of the highlights that week!  Very flattering!

Hope you are staying warm wherever you are.  We have lots of snow and ice today.
