New look...

Sorry I haven't posted since last Saturday....we've been rearranging the store this week! I'll post a couple of pictures tomorrow. We've been wanting to make some more room for our class/sew area. So, this week did some "creative" moving of fabrics, books and notions to make that area larger. Now our students will have a little elbow room, and our classes can be a bit larger!

Needless to say, with the Anniversary Sale last week, the rearrange this week, Fat Tuesday on the 5th, year end tax stuff, and 4th quarter tax stuff, I'm just a bit tired by tonight! But, you know, I realized that the thing that has been the most difficult about the last couple of weeks, is that I have had NO time to sew!

I don't know about you, but sewing is my therapy. I have a theory that when my kids were little, sewing was that one creative outlet/activity that started with a flat piece of fabric and ended with a finished product - a shirt, overalls for the kids, PJ's for one of the boys, etc. And the beauty of it was many-fold. There was creativity involved, but at that stage of life especially, it was indeed a finished product, unlike diapers, laundry, groceries, dishes - I got to finish something. And it felt really good!!

So....I need to sew something! The store will need to be rearranged again, the taxes will be due again, and yes, we'll have yet another sale. But I can make something and it's going to get finished and it will feel sooooo great!! Hope you get a chance to experience the joy of creating and finishing soon, too!

New pictures of the rearrange tomorrow...and maybe the start of my new project too?
