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! 

New Boards!

I have been buying fabric like crazy to build more boards.  It is like an addiction.  I will see a fabric I like that I think will make such a pretty board and even try to not buy it but sadly I can't leave it alone.  I buy on line a lot and a new fabric line came out that I loved but thank goodness it was flannel and fleece only so I was able to pass it up.  There are so many interesting fabrics out there, so many creative designers that I have to check them out.  They give me great ideas for boards.

Finally Sat is here!

I wish I could just do my boards but I have to pay the bills and can't do that with my boards.  I have to work so off I go today and then I will be off tomorrow.  I would probably get lazy if I didn't have my full time job so it has to be a good thing.  I have made several boards out of Melissa Averinos fabric and this is one of them.  I love her fabrics.  This is one of my favorite fabrics that I made.  Check out my shops to see the other boards I have in her fabrics.

I am thinking Spring!

I have been waiting for the weather to change to spring and I have been looking at spring fabric.  I have found some fabrics I really like.  There are so many cute things at Etsy that show how crafters are getting ready for spring.  http://www.etsy.com/shop/dolcechic check out her shop she has some beautiful flowers pics that will give you a breath of fresh air. 

Here is one of my spring items:

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.
