Something about me......

I realized I always talk to you all about the business side but you know almost nothing about me.. Here are some fun facts:)

Name: Jessica
Where I am from: Originally Cincinnati but have been living in Lexington, KY for almost 10 yrs
Favorite Color: Constantly Changes - Green right now
Favorite Food: Mexican but will try almost anything
Favorite Decade: Hmm I love the 60's because of the great Music but I like the 40's because of the clothes
Favorite movie: 50 First Dates - I love all romantic comedies though.
Something most people wouldn't guess when they first meet me: I am kind of geeky but even though I am a bit of a tomboy I can be pretty girly

Stay tuned for more next week ;)

Great Demo today at Michaels and maybe some new classes...

Thanks to everyone who stopped by the demo when coming in today.

So hopefully soon I will get to offer more classes at Michaels. They are talking about open-ended classes as well as some new projects on the schedule. Will be able to tell more once they send me the official  word.

 Also met the Girl Scout Leader whose troop I am teaching in November. I am so excited and nervous. It is going to be fun:)

I am now offering car seat blankets. The beautiful thing about these is they buckle in with your little ones. They are a easy to mange carseat size featuring an opening so that the buckle at the bottom will come through. What a great and no fuss way to keep your little one warm!

Had a great weekend:) Now time to get back to work...

Had a great weekend celebrating my amazing nephews birthday on Saturday. He has truly blessed our lives and considering everything he been through since being born 3 years ago, he still amazes me.

 So I think that I am going to be on an owl kick for a bit. I figured out how to make owl appliques and am currently adding one to a wrap sweater. I am also about to get crazy making lots o animals hats. Also for you Lexington, KY followers a local photographer , Amanda Mitchell Photography, and I will be making hats for mini sessions in October.




Come check us both out on Facebook. These adorable hats are great accessories to complete your fall pictures:)


 Wish me luck for tomorrows teaching endeavor. I have had to cancel class 3 times now. May tomorrow not be cancelled....

Hmmm I think I will get some new projects and designs done :) You know sometimes while I think OMG why did I make my hobby my job other times I think OMG how lucky am I that that get to do what I love and get paid for it.

Finally something accomplished......

So I have been a busy little bee lately trying to get some things done so I can take it out to the baby store.

 Gotta get ready for the Fall Rush. In other news..... My classes are going ok considering. I have found that a lot of people just don't have the time they used to. I hope that things pick up a bit soon. In the mean time I am just gonna keep doing what I do which is crochet like a mad woman LOL. You should come check out the new product on my FaceBook page.
