Hi all. Another week, can you believe it? My article was posted on Fashion-Incubator. It is great fun to share that part of my life with all. Let me know if you have any questions!

I have a goal for this week–well several!

  1. I hope to finish/start some baby gifts. I have 3 in mind with a 4th on hold. They include: baby shoes. This link is just one there are several available on line. The other two are Pee Pee Tee Pees because I’ve been informed it can only help. I better hurry before those babies get too big!! Also I have a since of humor! The one on hold is a baby outfit of some sort for children of some friends (we tend to hang out with an older crowd–maybe because we are so mature)! They are adopting a little girl from Ethiopia, so I am hoping to incorporate some traditional designs. The problem is they don’t yet know when she may arrive, hopefully by Christmas, and what her age is, it could be from 0 months-1 year.
  2. Tomorrow and the following Monday, I am meeting with a group of wives at my husband’s graduate school. They have all recently moved, some young and newly married, some older with kids out of the house. I hated my transition. I couldn’t find a job, my husband was diagnosed with leukemia, our cat that was under 2 died. It just sucked. So I hoping to sit and encourage other people that things can get better, and they are not alone!
  3. I bought a nice stash of fabric in July in NYC for fall/winter sewing. None of it has been used. I want to plan the garments and draft patterns, or use store-bought in essence creating a line. I’d like to pre-wash any fabric–remember that involves a laundromat, and sketch out my line–which can be modified once I start by next Sunday!!

I think that is enough to-dos. They are more want-to-dos which makes getting them done a lot easier!! I still need to figure out my sewing room. We didn’t switch desks and I feel really cramped. There has to be a solution!! Also, much love to my parents. We enjoyed their visit this weekend and the weather was gorgeous!!

Peace and love,
