New Quilt

Look at the fun quilt I just got back from my quilter today. I love it!!! It could be for a boy or girl. It measures 49x 59. I got this pattern from I have to say  blog. It was a quilt along. I have made 3 quilts using the same pattern. It is super easy and so fun! And I am so excited to finally get some Alphabet Soup yardage in today. I have been patiently waiting for this fabric to be available. I can't wait to make something with it. Check it out!

Welcome Summer!

I am excited to announce that my quilts, table runners, glass and bottle cap necklaces, as well as my bottle cap magnets are now available at a local store. Here are the details: Forget Me Not Boutique 113 South 600 East Lehi, UT 801-653-9919 The store just opened yesterday. And look at the lovely fabric I just got last week. I can't wait to make something with this fabric. I will probably make a skirt, quilt, and maybe even a bag. I will post pictures when I have something finished.

Opportunities

Well a lot has happened since my last post. I am anxiously awaiting for my business license to come in the mail. There will be lots more fabric coming to my shop in the near future. I have to tell you something. And this may sound weird, but every time I sell a quilt, I have mixed feelings. I am excited that someone else finds my quilts worthy of buying, but I am also sad to see it leave my home. I spend a lot of time planning and making a quilt. But when I get a review back like the one I got from my first quilt--" Fantastic to deal with and a great quilt for my son to love and grow up with. Thanks so so much !",  it makes me so happy to know that someone else will enjoy and love it too. I mailed this cute quilt today: I can't wait for you to see what is coming to my shop in the next few days. I am so excited! Oh, and I am taking 1 quilt and 1 table runner to the quilter tomorrow.

Good Day

So yesterday was a really good day, or even a really good weekend. I sold a necklace Saturday night, and then sold 3 table runners Monday morning. So excited. I mailed them all out today. Feels good to see them go somewhere else :) I hope they enjoy their items. I also finished a quilt and a table runner today. Can't wait to get them to the quilter tomorrow. Things are good.

So I have had a really bad week. I have had a very busy week. I was not feeling very motivated to make anything and a little discourage about sales. But last night, I sold this: This is one of my favorites. I am feeling better. I also finished this quilt yesterday. My two year old thinks it is hers. Thank goodness I have enough left over to make another one. It is a perfect size for a toddler bed. I am also making a matching pillowcase this week. I also heard back from the buyer of the spring table runner. She gave me a wondeful comment in her feedback on Etsy. That also made my day--to know she loves something that I made sure makes me feel good.
