i've been busy...really, i have!





well, i'm finally updating my blog and there's just so much that i've been doing and i don't know where to start! i did finish the wedding quilt for my brother and his wife, just in time for the wedding. luke was driving up to the pre-ceremony picture site as i was finishing attaching the binding, but it was done and that's all that mattered to me! it seems to be the way quilts work out for me when they are gifts...i'm always finishing them literally right before handing them over! it's prograstination on my part and i know it, as hard as i try i just can't (or won't) change that part of me! i can always say that i do my best under pressure!

my newest craft obsession is hair bows, included in that would be hair clippies and headbands. i'm not really sure why i decided to try my hand at hair accessories since my daughter doesn't really wear them, but now i've started them and i love making them. so logically the next step was to start selling them and i finally opened my etsy shop on november 1! i need to add more items and plan to this weekend, but at least i have a few things to get me started!

my etsy shop, www.chunkybugdesigns.etsy.com, has my hair clippies and some of my jewelry. i couldn't quite decide what to sell and had just planned on the hair clips but a friend asked about my jewely so i figured i'd throw that in there, too! so now my store is a little hod-podge of jewelry and hair clips...soon to have tons more things after i take more pictures! i've already sold a few things and "hosted" a showing last night where i sold more things and have the potential for putting on another show next month! yea, for me, i'm finally going to be able to support my craft habit!
