I am going to take the plunge.....

As most of you know, I have developed a love for sewing. I am either sewing something or buying fabric on a daily basis (my checkbook is totally reflecting the latter). Well, my favorite thing to make is skirts for Taylor. She has worn something new and adorable everyday this week to school. Her teacher, Miss Judy, actually said she waits to see what Tay is wearing each day because she always looks so cute. So, after having friends, family, and many others tell me that I should sell my adorable creations, I decided to do it. I have posted a few things on my facebook profile to sell, and am now have an etsy store. I am excited but a little nervous. So many questions running through my head......what if they don't sell? what do I do with the clothes if they don't sell? do I take special orders? what do I charge? I am totally one to sell myself short. Keep your fingers crossed that everything works out. And if you are looking for a new, adorable boutique skirt or dress for your daughter, granddaughter, or just as a gift, you know who to call!! I will update my facebook and blog often with new stuff that is for sale, and my etsy store link is www.lfassler.etsy.com

Obsessed....

Anyone who knows me knows that I have a totally obsessive personality. When I am on a kick with something, whether it be dieting, reading, scrapbooking, whatever, I totally obsess about it!! I talk about or do it constantly. Well, my new obsession is material. Ever since I started sewing all these cute things for Taylor, I find that I constantly want to go to new fabric & quilting stores to find the latest and greatest of fabric. I am getting to the point that I don't even know what I am going to make with it but I have to have it. Pretty soon I will have to go to "Fabric Anonymous". This may be my queue that I need to start making stuff to sell. We shall see what the future holds.......

I know what I've done this Summer....

This Summer has been really busy for me. The kids have pretty much had activities EVERY SINGLE DAY!! Though with that being the case, I have made sure to take time to do something I love, sewing. I have made Taylor some ADORABLE boutique style outfits that I couldn't have found anywhere, especially without paying a fortune!! I am pretty amazed that I am able to do such cute stuff with such ease, especially since I just learned to sew last November. I must have had an AMAZING teacher, wink wink!! Plus it is easy when you have such an ADORABLE model like Taylor!! I seriously LOVE that girl!!
