Another Busy Week

Got lots done this week, found and tweaked a set of social sharing icons for my pages (Thanks to simplesharingbuttons.com) that work in mobile and desktop. Changed some of the items out that are no longer available, added new items, added anchor tags to my 'for sale' page, moved content around to make the pages easier to use.

Reversible bags, halloween, holidays and more.

PLUS, Made these six reversible bags, including buttons and a free floating lining, to keep the side that's inside the purse clean and ready to turn out when it's time to change. Added more data and distant cousins to my family tree, breakfasted and lunched with family, started planning my next quilt, discussed life goals with the dogs. Didn't do so well on the laundry, dishes, yard work... got to knuckle down on those things, and find time to do them.

Getting Things Done

Well, I finally finished with adding closures and doing other hand sewing on the all of the bags I posted about here, and got my PayPal account set up, and re-worked all the images of sale items so that they would fit nicely on my 'What's For Sale' page. I've also started on some new bags, and tried to keep up with all the other things in life, you know, laundry, dogs, yard work, social media, eating, sleeping, this blog... It's not easy doing it all.

Bags and Bags

This week is was no less busy than last! These are just some of the bags I have been working on. They all still need a bit of hand sewing to finish them off. I have a set of Alaskan prints, Halloween/Christmas reversible's in what I have put together.

Tomorrow, I will start the 'finishing' on all the bags I have made, get them all finished, and then, get my paypal account set up, and on this site. I have decided to move on from Etsy, it feels like the right decision, now I just have to make the time to do it!

I also have to send out a very big Thank You to Georgia Lou Studios and Pedro for putting together the code and tools to create gallery's in blogger! I still have to resize all my images, but I am much farther along thanks to them.

Busy, Busy, Busy!

I have been working, working working on building up my 'stash' of bags, and adding new styles into the mix. I am considering a craft fair, and am awaiting information about one taking place not far away, in November and December, and I want to be ready.

I am also moving from Etsy to just offering an option to use paypal on this site, to streamline the process of making and updating you with what I am doing.
