Halloween

Whew!  I have been so busy lately between sewing, crocheting, and family life.  Yesterday was Halloween and we haven't even carved our pumpkins!  I better start prepping for Christmas now or else I may miss out on that holiday too.  My little ones dressed up as a butterfly and the Incredible Hulk.  We made it to about 8 houses and gave up trick or treating because my 2 year old son didn't want to walk.  My husband and I agree that if a kid can't walk to get their own candy then they shouldn't be trick or treating.  So we went to grandma and grandpa's instead. 

This morning is starting out wonderful.  I logged onto Facebook to see that His Life Magazine posted their November issue.  The photo chosen is of the super sweet model Hope and she's wearing the hat and skirt I sent her to model for me.  I think I may have a big smile on my face for the rest of the day.  You can find the magazine here.  This is the photo chosen for the magazine cover:

For those who are crocheters you can find the pattern for the hat here.  It's called the Laylah hat and it's by designer Head Over Heels Designs.  If you like to sew you can find the skirt pattern from Little Lizard King here:  Prep School Pleated Skirt 

The winners have been posted for Elucidating Photography's 2K Fan giveaway!  If you entered you can see if you won here. 

I have been super busy the past two weeks or so.  I continue to get a trickle of orders coming in which is awesome!  I plan on finding a day soon that I can sew for an extended amount of time and get some new items up for sale.  Yay!  I have so many ideas of things I want to make, now I just need the time to do it all. 

I also have a new logo now!  I'm super excited about it, as it makes me feel like I'm doing serious work now.  My only problem is that I don't know how to do much with PhotoShop and I'm not sure how to use my logo anywhere.  I'll figure it out eventually....

Giveaways

Fall is fast approaching and I'm trying to get myself prepared for hat orders.  I'm anxious to see just how many of you will be ordering from me this season.  In the meantime, I decided to participate in two different giveaways.  One is being held by Create Kids Couture, whom I have several amazing sewing patterns from.  Their giveaway is being held here:  Create Kids Couture Giveaway  You will be shocked to see all of the wonderful prizes that will be awarded to 10 winners.  WOW!!!  Check it out and see what I have up for grabs.  The CKC giveaway will run until August 19th.
