UPDATE on the toddler bags, see below ;)

**************

Gussy is excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For many reasons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One: I have gotten to know some really awesome girls in town and I just got home from yet another great evening of coffee + chatting :) Two of my favorite things :)

Two: I have OFFICIALLY completed 4 of the 6 custom orders. WOOT! Tomorrow I’ll be able to post some pictures of the finished bridal clutches.

This is great! I have already cut out the pieces I need to start my next project: a diaper bag. I wanted to get ahead of myself on project #5 so that I can dive right in tomorrow morning. I’m excited to see it come together. The body of the bag is an off-white and black print, the inside is a beautiful shade of green lined with a plastic overlay. Now that Gussy has only 2 projects, she’s ready for more. Please, if you’re looking for something custom, contact me :) As I’ve said before I would loooooooooove to work something out!

Maybe you’re wondering what type of custom order I do, or be interested in doing.

It’s OK to ask. But if you are shy, I can share now :)

*make-up bags
*diaper bags
*toddler bags {these bags are more for Mom than Child with the fabric, but overall are the same as design as a diaper bag, maybe bigger?}
*bridal clutches
*wallets
*GUSSY bags

I have a pretty large bin of fabrics that I’m waiting to introduce my sewing machine to. I was given some really great ______ that I am going to transform into something amazing. I’ve got lots of bright floral prints to work with :)

Three: I can’t remember. Again. I recently forgot something else while trying to blog. I hope this isn’t turning into something that happens full-time…

Four: A funny story– Tonight, while meeting with the girls, I was supposed to bring a few recipes to share. Well. I forgot.

I know, I know. That is so not like me! M. said, What? You forgot? Yeah right.

I just looked at her and said, I know, but I’m trying to be more spontaneous. Ya know, not remember everything.

Something {the look on their faces, probably} told me they didn’t believe me.

Whoops :-\

By the way… I’m really hoping all the coffee I drank tonight doesn’t keep me up until 2 a.m. Like it did last time. And the week before. And…





Mmmmmmm coffee :)
