Upcoming Sale

Hello All -

Just a quick note on a couple things that will be coming up shortly.  I've decided that I need to have a sale on some items to make room for the new products that I'm working on.  So starting next week I will have all Vintage clothing and costume jewelry going on clearance. Keep an eye out for the upcoming notice.

Also, on May 28 I will have my new line of tote bags along with my decorated wine bottles up for display at Uncommon Grounds, one of the coffee houses here in Saratoga Springs, NY. The display will be in the window right next to the outside seating area and will be up for the month of June. Thanks to Jennifer Maher of Your Toy Portrait, www.customtoyportrait.com for the opportunity.

So until next week...may you all have a blessed day.

A Confident Heart

I started a online Bible/Book Study with Renee Swope of www.Proverbs31.org She wrote a book on confidence, entitled "A Confident Heart".  We are in our 2nd week and I'm of course behind : ).  But, since I'm home recooperating from heel surgery, I will be able to catch up over the weekend.  Anyone interested in joining in visit www.reneeswope.com.

Last Class

This past Wednesday was officially my last "Sewing for the Home" class - until September.  As always, it was a great class.  The ladies learned how to make Wine Bottle Gift Bags, Table Runners and how to read a pattern envelope.  They were all very eager to learn.  Some worked a little faster than others and were nice enough to help out once they were done.

Once again, I want to thank you all for taking my class.  You did very well!  Remember to keep up the sewing and hopefully I will see you again in the Fall.

Pinch Pleat Curtains




At the time of my last posting, I realized that I had not taken pictures of the "pinch pleat curtain"...so here are some pics. Pretty neat, hah?

My "Home Decorating" class went great last night.  The ladies wanted to learn how to do pinch pleat curtains.  And I have never done them myself, but it didnt take much to figure it out, especially with the help of pleat tape.  That stuff is awesome.  Lee (one of the ladies in the class) was telling me how she remembered doing them in 4H and how they had to measure each pleat.  Boy, has sewing come a long way!

Next week is the last class and I will be sorry to see this group go.  It was another awesome class and I can't wait until the Fall session arrive.
