Happy Monday :)

I know I said I would be posting more.

But the end of July got away from me.

We had a Sewing Day at our new church here in Idaho.

We were making dresses

for LittleDressesforAfrica.org.

It was such a great day!

The youngest among us was 11 years old

and had never sewn before.

She ended up making 3 dresses!!!

20 dresses were made in total

and it's so cool to think about the little girls

who will be blessed by them :)

Then I needed to finish up

 the 60 Bag of the Month packages for August.

The club keeps growing and I'm so grateful

to all my amazing customers!

I'm sewing as fast as I can 

to get an inventory together. 

This October we will be attending

 the Needlework Galleria show 

 in St Charles, MO.

My bags are "made to order" 

so I don't have an inventory laying around.

And last but not least I have to show you

the little giftie I bought for myself :)

Sometimes you just need something

super cute that comes in a super cute tin.

It's called Frivols and now I just need to figure out

when, if ever, I'll have time to sew this little quilt...ha!

July Bag of the Month and a few others :)

Since moving to Idaho in January 

we have started a Bag of the Month Club.

This is the July package. 

I can share it now

 as my customers have all received their surprise packages.

It's been so much fun to find the fun themed tuck ins

that go in every month's packages.

The cost is $40.00 with free shipping in the USA.

If anyone is interested in joining,

please email me with your email address

 and I can send you the info.

This is one of the fun bags I listed in the shop yesterday.

It's just so bright and fun!

These 2 feature hand drawn pen and ink artwork 

by the Artist Michelle Palmer.

Her work is ah-mazing!!!

I love trying to find just the perfect fabric

s to showcase her artwork.

Well I'd better get back to work.

The August Bag of the Month bags won't sew themselves......

Well.....HELLO!!!

It's been such a LONG time since I posted

and I have to say that I have missed you all.

We arrived in Idaho at the end of January 

and we've been crazy busy since we arrived.

My awesome hubby worked so hard to get

my sewing studio ready :)

We have witnessed Spring.

This is a big deal for me as I have lived in California

most of my life and it's just one big Summer there.

I've stitched......

We've taken a gorgeous motorcycle ride.

The scenery here is ah-mazing!

And I've stitched.....

We flew back to California for our nephew's graduation.

We drove back to California because my Nana heart couldn't

bear to be away from my Minions for another second.

And I've stitched.....

And we launched the Bag of the Month Club.

It's been so much fun and it has doubled in size since January.

So crazy but I'm so blessed by my wonderful customers!

Well now that I'm back I have so many fun ideas for my little blog!

Stay tuned and expect to see me more often!

I'd love to hear from you!!!
