GOT A FEW ITEMS DONE THIS WEEK


HI,
Just wanted to thank everyone for their kind words and prayers. My dad is doing much better. He should be getting out of the hospital tomorrow or the next day. His speech is the only lingering effect of the stroke, and already he is speaking better. At least now, we can understand him.
I managed to get a few things done this week. I started on the sachets, tranferred the images to front of the bags. I also got my order from Atlantic spice for the herbs and botanicals that go into the sachet mix. I am supposed to add the fragrance oil and let them sit for at least 4 weeks.
I am so impatient, I want to finish them now. I am doing them in a Raggedy Ann , Christmas, Website logo, and everyday images. I have included a couple of pictures of the bags and the mixture.





Also, the new Country Sampler came out, I am having a good response to the doll Sadie that is in the magazine. I have sold several of them already finished. So I need to get busy on them, have them started but haven't time this past week to finish them. Luckily she makes up fast is easy to do. Hope everyone is having a happy and safe Memorial day.
