Well hello there!! After a long and what you would think would be peaceful break, I have happily returned to the blog and to making little things for my Etsy shop! Now wait a minute, what do I mean the break wasn’t peaceful?
I’m letting the cat out the bag: I was battling some pretty raging morning sickness over the last few weeks and my body needed my full attention. Yep, baby number two is on the way!!! Everyone is happy and healthy so far and we’ll be hearing a tiny pitter patter of the heartbeat on Thursday afternoon. I’m just stoked that I can finally devote my attention to something besides trying not to vomit all day.
It hasn’t been completely terrible–I have managed to sharpen some skills and add a few new ones to my arsenal of techniques. Thanks to the dizzying array of classes offered at The Yarn Shop and Fiber Place, I can now knit, weave, and paint with wool. That place is saving me a fortune on a Fiber Arts degree, let me tell you.
Now if you want to pop on over to my Etsy shop you might notice a little facelift has taken place there. I have realized that I’ve been so busy trying to make things that I think people will buy that I have completely neglected to make things that I would buy. Hmm. Now that seems kind of dumb, doesn’t it? No more trying to fit in with the crowd–back to being Julie. Simply, proudly, happily, peacefully. That is the name of the game after all.
Here’s a little something that I whipped up earlier this week for a special friend of mine:
It’s currently a reserved listing in The Shop but there will be more coming soon. I have also been a busy little bee with the needle felting and have made a few sweet little ornaments for Solstice, Christmas, hanging in your car, or whatever you like to do with these kinds of things. I’ll be listing a couple of those tomorrow for the official grand re-opening of my little corner of Etsy so be sure to check in.
Other than that, I owe a big thank you to everyone from Zany Zebra who has been popping in and graciously emailing about my diaper tutorial. I hope to have some more diaper patterns for you in the shop here shortly and I am working on a PDF format for the measurements of all sizes of diaper for those of you who have been patiently waiting for the drafting information. And as a matter of fact I am working on the final version of the recycled sweater diaper cover as we speak and hope to have the final version posted here sometime soon.
It’s good to be back!! Keep your eyes peeled for all the new stuff!!
