If they are just buying something from my shop, they get what they've seen, so no potential for disappointment. So you have to have nerves of steel! I love that red stripy bag and the offcut creation!Very Berry Handmadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00289842894397211836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8867358284580766646.post-23493860728247425462012-02-17T17:24:10.461+00:002012-02-17T17:24:10.461+00:00Wow , you have been busy. Makes me feel even worse...Wow , you have been busy. Makes me feel even worse about my own inactivity over the last few weeks :o)<br /><br />I've just recently come to a similar conclusion re. crafting. Having spent the last three years making a concerted effort to attend craft fares and sell the wares that were building up in my workroom I have decided I'm going to give it a break for a while.<br />I found I had stopped enjoying creating because I was so concerned about having enough on a stall to appeal to as wide a range as possible.<br />I want to get back to making for pleasure, and for people that ask me to make for them. I can't imagine never making, I just need to rediscover why I make. <br />I hope your new venture works out well for you.<br /><br />As far the dogs go it a tricky one. We lost our dog a year ago last November, and while I miss him dearly ( he was a dog in a million) and occasionally have pangs to get another (mainly for the company and the inevitable exercise) I have to admit we have been a lot less tied without him.Linnhe Marahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17960310077208873662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8867358284580766646.post-3775381633008679692012-02-17T04:01:58.272+00:002012-02-17T04:01:58.272+00:00How wonderful that you get put your talents to use...How wonderful that you get put your talents to use AND make a little profit for yourself!Miss Pricklyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17124464700790056459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8867358284580766646.post-24361625465974851332012-02-16T23:19:54.641+00:002012-02-16T23:19:54.641+00:00Yum!

That is exciting and nothing better than getting paid to do what you love. You are talented and I wish you the best.<br /><br />Those are some beautiful dogs. What kind are they? That is interesting about your husbands allergies and how they have gotten worse. The body is so interesting in the way it works.<br /><br />Well, I hope you are having a good week and keeping warm.
