I have been oh so busy lately, spring arrived in our area a few weeks ago and we have been planting and cleaning garages and gardens, we have a little more to do this weekend and then hopefully we can just enjoy the summer. By that I mean stay in the air conditioning and work on projects. I actually love being outside but in our area the heat and humidity arrive pretty fast and being outside in the heat of the day is not fun, we are already in the high 80's so we work outside early in the day so that we can and stay inside the rest of the day.

In my studio I have been working on new items and waiting for supplies to arrive, supply chain issues makes the wait a little longer but I have adjusted when I order to make up for the delay hopefully and I try to keep well stocked because I don't want to run out of supplies. I try to buy before I need it because prices have gone up so much and are still going up I need to keep inventory prices down as much as possible, I also don't want to run into the nightmare of having to order last minute because I need something to complete a project and not being able to find it at all. That being said I have some items that I ordered 2 months ago that I still haven't recieved so the wait has been challanging.

I have been trying to create designs for baby quilts while working on orders. I have T-Shirts to list online along with hats, we finally found a good place to install the hat hoop so that I can start making hats and I have hats, totes and towels to list. I stay pretty busy with my shop, the yard & the house, so much for being retired, but I love my life so that's ok, it took us a very long time to get here.
