Its Crazy time!

I decided to retire and work more on my shops but I have let my blog go.  I have been busy creating new boards for my shops, trying to promote but just not adding any info to my blog.  I will try to do better.  Here are a couple of boards that I have been working on.  I have tried to go with the western them right now to add a new collection to my shop.  They are fun to make and I have added a few things to make them  interesting.

Well !

It was a beautiful day today but I just enjoyed hanging at the house.  I am shipping some boards to a consignment in Rhode Island and sold a board that I will ship in the morning.  It has been slow so I am grateful for any traffic I have.  I was so busy at the first of the month selling boards left and right then it just stopped.  I am not sure why but I guess with spring break and easter there were other things to do besides shop on the computer.  Check out my etsy shop and see the new boards I have listed.  My goal is to have 200 boards in my shop by Christmas! 

Check This Out!

http://www.jesmy.etsy.com/ has a lot of knitted items that are so nice.  She has an apricot and carmel cowl that is to cute.  Check out her store for knitted hats and dishcloths.  You may find something that you can't do with out.

I was asked to make this board for a guy who loves flannel shirts, that is all he wears.  I found this fabric to make his board and he loved it.  My dnl said it was Tartan like, whatever it was something new I put in my shop.

Just another Day of Cold Weather!

I would love to stay home today and build new boards for my shop but my real job is what pays my bills.  It is not as much fun and requires a lot of my time.  Even as my sales have continued to increase in my shop, I still come home every night to build boards for my customers.   My fabric stash continues to grow as I am always looking at fabric to use for my boards.   I plan on putting more people on my blog in the future to show you how creative people are in their crafts.  It amazes me how many different things people can find to make. 

Well Spring was short lived!

It started snowing about noon but it didn't stick just left a mess.  I was really hoping for spring.  I made a new board for a girl at work and I think it is so cute.  It has cats and kittens on it in a garden.  Lots of colors.  It is just so cute!  I bought more material to make more boards, I am like an addict when it comes to fabric.  I am always looking for something that will make a great board.  It is a good thing that I am selling some boards so I can buy more material.    By the way, I finally sold my 100th board.  That is quite a feat for me. 

What do you think?  You know what I think.

Its that time again!

I can feel spring in the air.  Today was almost perfect!  The only thing I had to work so I didn't get to enjoy the warm weather we are finally getting.  Check out this new shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/DreamwoodArtDesigns it is the cutest shop.  Her work is great!  If you love your animals you will love her shop of animals that she makes.  They are so life like!  Please give her some support.

Check this new board! A customer requested a Southwest Board with these colors.  I am thinking it is Southwest but I could be wrong.  I just love the color of ribbon I used.
