It’s been over a week already?

WOW!  I can’t believe it has been over a week since I last updated here.  I guess I just tend to update my other blog more than this one.  I have also been ironing fabric, ironing on the interfacing, pinning, and sewing lots of tote bags.  As to how many will make it to either the Etsy shop or Hyena Cart?  I won’t know until Monday.  Maybe earlier, but I’m not holding my breath.

I finished a bag on Saturday that I absolutely love and have received numerous compliments on.  Now I just need to get some more of the fabric and make more of them!

Here is a picture:

I have also been given a bunch of fabric to sew up some of the same style of bags for the local quilt shop.

I can’t express how excited I am about all of this work happening so quickly, whether it be for my Etsy or Hyena Cart, or the local quilt shop.  Now I just need to get everything organized better so it’s easier to work through the messes.

My husband has a few weeks off from work, so I think we are going to convert the bathroom we don’t use into my sewing room.  We have lived in this house for almost three years and we only used the shower in that bathroom for the six weeks or so.  Currently it is used to store all of the toys for our two young sons.  The toys need to be sorted and divided to see what stays, what gets tossed, and what gets donated.

This Saturday is also the open sew at the local quilt shop, so I will be able to get a lot of sewing done, I hope.  I need to charge up my iPod so I can get a lot done.  I took my iPod with me one time and got a lot done, even though it meant I was anti-social with everyone else there.  But I think they tend to understand that I need to get a lot done and it helps me move faster.

Now if I can just find where my iPod has gone and hid out at!
