Indecisiveness

Have you had so many projects to do that you cannot decide which to do first? I have pictures of Harley Davidson clothing that I want to list on ebay. I have a quilt ready to cut and a quilt ready to ship to my daughter. I also have my civil war quilt ready to mark for hand quilting on the borders. I am sleepy and would like to work on a nap project. What to do?

I have Wednesday afternoons off from my job. I feel like I want to make the most of my free time. I think the nap is going to win out.

Making My Logo Was Simple

PhotobucketI have been buying from VistaPrint ever since I ordered a mug with a picture on it for a friend eleven years ago. I wanted to purchase a gift that held a special place in my friend’s heart. A mug with a picture of her new baby certainly fit the bill. I have ordered business cards several times and have so much fun making my own logo with their easy program. Logos are easy to produce just by going to VistaPrint. Oh, and did I mention it costs nothing to design your logo? Yes, that is correct. You get a professionally designed logo for free.

The program is super simple to use. Click on the Logo link and type in the name of your business in the space provided. Then you can choose whether you want an industry type of logo or want to choose a style of logo. Since I wanted to promote my sewing projects, I chose the style option. Then I picked a font that I thought showed off my name better than some of the others. I was able to pick colors that were my favorite and now I have an awesome looking logo. When I get ready to order my business cards, my logo is ready and I got it free. Photobucket

Aren’t they beautiful? I can’t wait to get them ordered! VistaPrint has a special offer to save 50% when using the coupon code, BizCard08. I only need to make a few more purses and I will be ready to get my business off the ground.

A Finished Project!

Tackle It Tuesday Meme

I have so many ufo’s, (that means unfinished objects for all you non sewing bloggers), that I decided that today was the day to get this little purse finished.
I put the rest of the buttons on:

Do You Like It?

I just wanted to show you what I made on Saturday. I decided that my bags so far have been pretty but basic. The fabric for this one was chosen because of the bright colors. What do you think?

My Kentucky Home

You know what happens when you are visiting your sister and you have larengytis? You sew! Everyone keeps asking why I am so quiet. You would think that I talk alot. LOL

When mom, my two sisters and I get together, we have a lot to catch up on. We have been buying so much fabric and have to show each other all of our projects. Now that we have been together, we have even more projects! Good thing I don’t need my voice to sew.
