There is hope!

Despite the horrific weather I battled with today, I came away from my sister's salon feeling positive!

Not only did I get a re-style (and of course those impetuous grey roots dyed into submission) but I also found out that 2 of my bags have sold!  Hooray!

And because all of the make-up pouches had previously sold I brought 5 more down with me plus 6 tissue pouches (see pics here).

Within 10 minutes of me setting them out, 4 tissue pouches sold and 1 of the new make-up pouches.  And so as not to completely deplete the stock before customers get a look in, my sister & one of her staff have also ordered about 6 more make-up pouches for teachers' Christmas presents!!  

Looks like I need to order more zips then!!

I can't bear to write a post without a photo (?!) so I'll show you the quilt back for the 'man' quilt we are making in Bee Blessed.  I just love that Kona Ash, one of my favourite Kona colours!

All materials from River Fabrics.
Hope you've had a less wet & windy day than me!  I'm off to class tonight to see more wonderful creativity in the form of Advent Calendars!

  9. Was it the orange one you just made that sold today? That would have been the one I would have bought. I am so pleased they are selling like hot cakes. Well done, you deserve it.

  13. Well done with the sales. Better get your zips ordered quickly as they sound like they are going like hot cakes.
    As for your weather, well you are not alone we have had awful weather for over a week now. Rain and more rain and very cold and windy. Hope we get a bit of sunshine soon as I have a great big pile of washing to do.
