I lost my mom and picked up my sewing machine on the same day, two weeks ago Friday. The several days following a death are such a whirlwind of activity and now I am exhausted. Some things had to be let go, so all of the non-paying work is officially let go for now. I’m focusing on getting my messy house cleaned up (we have a bunch of boxes of miscellany from my mom’s house here now) and getting caught up on Wallypop and Blvd Designs orders. I have actually turned down requests for custom items recently, as well.

Today, I finished two adorable crab totes, which I hope to photograph tomorrow.
