Halfway thru Winter!

I'm so happy that we are at the official half-way mark of winter. My absolute least favorite time of the year. :( If I could just stay in for 3 months, I surely would). My shop would definitely be over-stocked if I could hibernate that long.

I'm still working on these, which I love, love, LOVE! I have a stack of them to be photographed (grumble, I really hate photographing them!) and an even bigger stack to finish. I don't know why I am so very enamoured with one of a kind at the moment, but I completely am. Even though it means ...

taking more pictures! Boo. 

It's kinda funny, after years and years, I finally got an appropriate background for picture taking. A friend built it (it's super kick-ass) for me, it definitely makes things so much easier. You would think I'd be more inclined to take pictures.

Gotta run. Orders to package up, post office run, chicken noodle soup on the stove, new things to finish sewing, picture taking all before work.

After work, team Bloodweiser needs a little practice! We've been doing really well. I'm shooting for cities this year ....

After the complete and utter domination I handed out playing 9 ball on Tuesday, I'ma feeling a little ... confident! When relaying that story to my 8 ball team mates, I used the words 'vaporize' and 'decimate'. I never, ever get to say that; I'm more used to be on the receiving end of the ass-whooping. Nice way to break my losing streak.

First post of 2013!

2 weeks into the New Year already! Yikes! This month is just flying by .... between work, league, practice, and working on all these new goodies for the shop, I've had very little time for anything. And, as been oft proven, I'm not the most consistent blogger ...

I'm really taken with limited edition sets right now. I've got a pile of new ones that are going into the shop after I finish photographing them (my absolute least favorite part of this job). Once I finish this post, I'll start listing them. Here's a little preview:

I really like the cute fancy stitching along the inside edges of the tissue case. It's so girly! Quite possibly my favorite detail about these. I also really love the trimming along the edge of the zipper. 

I'm also working on getting the V-Day section super well stocked. Currently, there are close to 40 items listed. We'll see how full it gets by the end of the month. (I'ma remain mum about the actual number I'm shooting for.) This is the first year in a long time that I'm actually sorta stoked about V-Day. 

So, that's it for now. My projection for the next batch of new items is after V-Day. Yay!!!
