So the year
is officially halfway over! How many of
your projects have you finished? Over
the holiday weekend I was working on a Christmas outfit for my grandson and my
daughter says, “What did you make for his 2nd Birthday outfit?” Hmm…Since his birthday is next week, we are
just making a Johnny with a monogram on it. Lace Cottage is working on
Christmas outfits now and I am just so ready to get more than two outfits done
for him.
The Christmas
projects for Lace Cottage will be displayed in the store beginning in
August. It seems like Christmas is far
away, but this year is going by so quickly.
Our calendar is steadily increasing with the number of classes we are
having as well as the variety! We are
proud to have 2 sessions of sewing Kids Camp this year! Hopefully, our young sewers will continue
their interest in sewing. We welcome
your project ideas to help us do this.
As we
continue into the second half of the year, (which I expect to go by quicker
than the first half) I have so many ideas I want to work on – from
back-to-school, football game outfits, and then moving right into the holidays
of Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas!
Since it is so hot outside right now- I can just stay inside and work on
some of these.
As much as I
usually think I have accomplished in a day, there is always my sewing room to
go to and see just what things I have left undone. How many unfinished projects do you
have?
See you
Tuesday!
