Still Moving......

Okay, this move is dragging on!  I figure I'm down to 4 more carloads.  That's how moves go when you don't get a truck and get it all done at once.

Anyway, some exciting things are happening!  I will be designing and copyrighting a sewing pattern this week. It's a fairly quick sewing project and will help to reduce landfill waste.  I'll post pictures when it's completed.  This will be my first pattern for sale through The Greener Needle. 

In June I'll intern with an online sock yarn store: Knitters Brewing Company.  Check out the site - it's pretty cool  http://knittersbrewing.com 
Besides filling incoming orders, I'll be working on inventory for the upcoming Sock Summit in Portland, Oregon.  I plan to help at the Knitters Brewing Company booth during the convention on July 28 - 31.  Should be a lot of fun!

Catching Up

Well, it's been a month since I've created a post.  I went through a move that took more time than I thought it would.  Good news is I found fabric and yarn that I hadn't seen for a couple years!  Now I'm really inspired to get some sewing done.

Needlecrafts for Charity finished and delivered 20 cat mats to the Humane Society.  The cats were very appreciative :)
Last week we had our final meeting as a fundraiser for next year.  We hope to make 200 sanitary pad kits for young ladies in Africa next fall.  Please contact me if you'd like to help us with this project.

More to come later........
