Okay…..we’ve finally set a date for the Spring launch: February 24th! We’ll have the look book available around the 22nd from the photo shoot……sorry you have to wait so long for that but we aren’t rushing things around here since there is so much going on with my health and keeping things running smoothly.

Many items will be ready to ship and we’ve made twice as much as last year. I think you’ll like it. The girls have been working so hard I barely see them except for a minute or two here or there. Cutting, silk screening, sewing, hemming, packaging…..they rock. I’m so excited about all the fun fabrics and influences in this line. So far there are 16 pieces in the line…..and we will have follow up offerings for additional coordinates for a few weeks following the launch!

As always….every piece is handmade, hand silk screened with “tagless” tags, decorated with original artwork and only the softest fabrics are used…..a requirement from my sensitive Boo. Thank you for supporting small handmade businesses like mine!

Here’s a sneak peek of my story board……I love it when a plan starts to come together!

Love these two!

Today was a long day for me! But a fun one! I’m super tired but just wanted to check in real quick before I head to bed. I’ll write a longer post tomorrow! Lisa picked me up at 7:00am this morning and we drove to Anaheim, CA for the Craft and Hobby Association Conference:

Ilovetocreate.com asked me to be a part of their “celebrity lounge” to meet and greet with conference attendees. It was a lot of fun and I met so many new friends! I was surprised that anyone even knew who I was since I have no hair now!

Lisa and I in the glitter photo booth:

We left the conference early to visit my dear friend Elaine at Hoag Memorial Hospital which was only about 10 miles away from the conference. It made my day to be able to spend a few minutes with her and her family before we drove back home this evening.

Thank you Lisa for being my chaperone and chauffer! I couldn’t have done it without you!

Sweet dreams everyone!

Channeling some Kanye.

That that don’t kill me, will only make me stronger.

P.S. Those are peace signs. My 4-year-old does NOT know how to flip the bird….or what the bird is.

If it’s possible to feel sorry for a food…..then I feel sorry for Indian food.  Cakes have it easy… you see the pretty icing and you KNOW it’s going to taste amazing.  Indian food…..not so much. It got hit with the ugly stick*. All those poor drab colors.  I bet there are so many people who have never tried Indian food because of how it looks. And that makes me sad.

Don’t judge by outward appearances. It’s what on the inside that counts.

*Ugly sticks are rumored to come from Ugly Trees, which in turn can be found clumped together in ugly forests. (from the Urban Dictionary)
