Christmas Stockings-Yay!

Life's been busy...such an understatement!
On the 5th of November, Taylor and I had a girl's road trip-
to Boston.
She's moved there to find a job.
It was a beautiful trip.
However, I kept getting these emails on my phone.
Confirmation of an Etsy transaction.
I got lots of them!


First batch-16 Christmas Stockings.
Today I finished 6 shower curtains and a floor length gathered/cord table cloth.
I'm a fast sewer-as in sewing.


So...as of right now, I only have 104 more stockings, a couple of pairs of panels and some dog beds...as of right now.
Oh, and throw in the Christmas music that's already on the radio 24/7.
I'm a fast sewer.
However, my studio is a casualty of being this busy.


The good thing is I know where everything is...kind of.

I'm very flattered and excited that so many people like and appreciate the things that I make.
It's like Christmas for me, ok-I'm a fabricaholic, when the weekly fabric order arrives.
20-30 yds of different fabric makes my heart go pitter-patter.
I guess I should get back to work, after all, I have my own personal projects that need finishing before Christmas.
It's a good thing I'm a fast sewer!

November Garden


Evergreen Wisteria


Lantana


Rose on Trellis


Mini Rosebush from the grocery store.
You know, the ones that are about 8" tall.
 It's about 2 1/2' tall now and blooms all summer until we get a freeze.


Shrimp Plants





Lavender

They're all blooming better than they have all summer.
