Getting pattern orders out today! Sending patterns to quilt shops and individuals is definitely a big job, but such a good feeling when you get orders on their way. The process includes receiving orders via phone and email, checking inventory, getting the patterns put together, preparing invoices, and packaging for shipment. It’s so much fun as a designer to imagine what everyone is doing with the patterns they purchase…what fabric are they using…will the finished quilt be a gift for someone…what will the quilts purpose be…
Tonight Tony put up my new clothesline!! I am so excited! I think it is somewhat a waste of energy to run my dryer on hot days when hanging them outside would work just as well. Not to mention the smell of air dried sheets and towels! So tomorrow morning, the plan is to get up and get the laundry started. I have a small mountain of bedding waiting to be done, since I was stalling for my clothesline. One thing I can promise, with the use of my new energy efficient “dryer,” you won’t ever see undies swinging on my line!! Using a clothesline is one small way I can be a little greener and that alone makes me smile.
Here’s something that I couldn’t resist picking up at a shop. Not sure what I’m going to do with it yet. It’s a wide burlap trim with red woven in it. I’m sure I’ll think of something life-shattering to do with it… I really did have to have it…
