I am hauling out more old projects as I recall them. Things that I made for some reason or another over the years and never did anything with. Again, they are going straight into the destash store to try and rid my house of these interesting but otherwise not useful objects.
Today I found and listed these juggling bags, as why not? I made myself a set many years ago, from rainbow prints left over from a quilt I was making and thought it would be fun to make another set to sell...
only, I didn't have anyone to sell them to or any forum for reaching buyers. So they sat in the closet for several years. Well! Now I remembered them and now they are up for the world to enjoy!
On a side note, if you want to know the secret to juggling, click through to the picture and read the description.

Sharing the love
Like any designer, I get the biggest kick out of seeing my work on my customers. Photos of my designs being worn and enjoyed by real people give me that little thrill that I can't compare to anything else. It's an instant high for me, and the reason I am so addicted to sewing and design.
To aid the masses (the throngs of adoring fans I have to wade through hip deep just to leave my house in the morning, doncha know) in sharing the love, I created a group on Flikr where customers (and fabulous friends and family members who I have done work for) can post pictures of themselves in my creations.
I might say it's for you, darlings, but really it's to feed my need ;)
Check it out here!
right now it sure is lonely and could use some help!

8 hours of Christmas music
The best part of working from home on I Will Fly stuff is that I get to avoid the muzak system at my day job two days a week. I realized yesterday, while charting how many times they played "have yourself a merry little Christmas" on the muzak system while I was at work (6!) that I hadn't actually heard any music that wasn't Christmas related in over a week.
So today I will sew while iTunes plays my music collection (which is thankfully devoid of Christmas songs) on random all day long.
I will sing along very loudly to all of it.
MAMA DON'T LEAVE ME LYIN' HERE BLEEDIN' ON THE FLOOR!!!!!
and such...
EVERYONE IS CRYING AT THE DREAD HYPNOTIC FLYING OF THE BEE OF THE BIRD OF THE MOTH!!!!
