Christmas is coming

We are now on the countdown to Christmas.  Our classes are nearing the end for the year.  Only one more Saturday of kids classes and one more Thursday of sewing with the ladies.

It has been a wonderful year filled with challenges and hard work  and the sheer joy of working every day doing something I love ....... it is a constant source of joy.

Our move to our own premises at 9 Canning Street in North Ipswich has been a very positive one.  Rod's Ipswich City Acupuncture Clinic is growing quickly and it has worked well having my sewing studio and his practice in the one location.

Yesterday was an interesting learning curve to say the least.  I have lots to learn about  blogging, etsy, ebay, madeit, faceboook, iphoto etc etc ........... I have entered a challenging new world  and am loving it. 

I was delighted at 11pm last night to have finally put my little boys play clothes sets up on etsy.com  I will need to redo them today as they are all together in one spot and I have realised I should have put them up separately  BUT the challenge for day 1 was to post them.  Mission accomplished.


The family are coming for lunch today so it will be a quiet day in the sewing room and study.
