Progress

No pictures to show yet but I have been making much progress in the sewing room (aka "sewing cave" or "sweatshop"). The weekend before this last, I made 5 coffee cup aprons and still have one more of those to make in the next two weeks. This last weekend, I made two bags and one Owl case. One of the bags that had a lot of ruffles on the front, took a long time so making more of those to sell, will not be economically feasible at this time. I need a running start with those kinds of things I guess. Need to get both the embroidery machine and the sewing machine going together but I'm not sure what I want to make on the embroidery machine...maybe bookmarks since those take a bit of time and don't take me away from the sewing machine. Plus, they proved to be pretty popular at the last craft sale. Yeah, that's the ticket, bookmarks.

Sounds like you are doing a bang up job. Bookmarks are a great idea.

random blog hopping and stumbled onto yours. Love your picture of a springer. We've had various springers over the years, usually 2 at a time. This is such a great breed.

My sis is making the lace bookmarks. It takes a while but a no brainer. And they look classy. Hope you are taking pictures.
