Good Stuff!
I'm barely keeping my head above water over here, but I have to give you a few quick updates!
3 of my friends from here in Sacramento and I have gotten together and put up a blog and a website called Pimp Stitch. It's a fun way for us to meet up and be creative as a group and it's just what we all needed. It's a nice distraction from all of the other stuff we work so hard on. Pimp Stitch is PURE fun, and while it's not going full force just yet, I hope you'll take the time to check it out :) Amy, Lauren and Tamie are all super fun people to be friends with... I know... I spent the whole weekend with them at Baz Biz, and let me tell you... my cheeks HURT from laughing so hard all weekend! (I'll spare you the details because they really aren't blog appropriate... lots of potty humor!)
Also, I wanted to give you the blog tip of the century READ LAUREN'S BLOG!!!!!!!!! Lauren is really committed to blogging and sharing her craftiness and inspiration. To me, this is the epitome of blog land. Sharing ideas, providing how to's and inspiration and just all in all making it possible for others to share in any success you've found. This is why I love Lauren's blog. She does a tutorial and a give away every single week. So if you are only reading ONE blog... hers is the one to read. If you need a teacher's gift, hostess gift, or a plain ole pick me up... go to Goody Goody. You'll find it there! And if you aren't crafty but you like to buy crafty stuff... lucky for you, she has a shop too!!!
And finally, I just wanted to put a quick note up that says I'm not longer teaching at Convenzione. I could write about how and why this all came about... but I'm afraid if I did, that it could be misinterpretted or picked apart. So let me just say that it didn't work out, and there's no hard feelings. BUT, I did work very hard on getting a project ready JUST for this event, so since I've gone that far, I'm going to put the kits for it in my etsy shop. I won't post them until next week because I still have to bag them up and write instructions, but I already have all of the stuff :) I'm sorry if I've dissapointed any of you, but trust me when I tell you, I'm no big thing, and you're not missing anything! LOLOLOL! Candice Carpenter has come on board to take my place, and speaking from experience (because I've taken classes from her) she is so super talented and fabulous and you will LOVE her! Do not hesitate to sign up for her class! And tell her I sent you!!!!
And finally... one more pic to leave you with from baz biz....
