Everything has a season.  Planting, growing, harvesting, fishing, hunting, buying, seasonal decorating and on and on.

I am currently in the Sewing Season.

This time of year people are busy enjoying the first few warm days summer. Grilling, catching up with neighbors and wrapping up another year of school for the kids. This makes for slower sales but a time I love to open the office windows, take in the fresh air and sew and sew and sew. Stocking the shop for the next season.

I have a friend in Oklahoma that recently told me the story of the Oklahoma Land Rush of 1889.  His version of this historic moment was much more entertaining than the History Channel, but remarkably just as accurate. In fact, halfway through his rendition I asked him if he was making it all up. I have fallen for his tom-foolery before. 😉 He reassured me he was not making this particular story up.   So the trusting soul that I am, I googled it. It is a great moment in time when settlers claimed their stake.

Why on earth am I referencing this event in history?

Because following sewing season is buying season. It seems that just like the Oklahoma land rush,  a virtual cannon goes off, pistols are fired and bugle sounds blare. Shoppers come in droves to stake their claim.

So many wonderful online customers browsing, asking questions, requesting custom orders and leaving glorious feedback about the items they have received.

 As soon as I emailed the owner to see if I could have one of these made smaller, she assured me it was fine and she would be more than glad to make one for me. This lady is wonderful to do business with and I am sure I will be back for more items from her in the future. By the way, she wraps the pillow cover up nicely and it arrives at your door very fast. GREAT SERVICE. – by Daniel09
