Lazy person is lazy...

I keep telling myself that I either need to finish the last few things for The Accessory Lady or work on things to show the consignment shop. I've done neither of those things, but I have done some things.
I have figured out the size I need to make the wallet so that it can fit money folded once. I've also worked on some charity things for my other project.

If it ain't broke...

I think the crafting gods are trying to tell me something. It boils down to: if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I was hoping to be able to post a product picture today, but that was not in the cards. The first one I tried to make failed at the very beginning. The second was looking pretty good until I tried to sew it. A few thread issues later I had it all assembled.
Somehow it was too small! The outside also got messed-up when I tried to fix it.
Hopefully the third time is a charm and I will be able to post some good news!

I'm not sure there is an end...

I keep slowly creeping to the end of my commissioned/freelance accessory job, but I don't seem to be able to actually get to the end.
I was also hoping to get some stuff for the shop done while I was at an event in GA, but I was having too much fun running around to sit and make anything.
In good news, one of my friends works at a boutique in DC. They specialize in recycled and upcycled items. My friend thinks that if I made some fabric flowers and card-holders out of old shirts and ties, they might be interested.
Once I get some time I am going to make some inventory and contract them for a meeting, I'm exited!
