Personalized Baby Blanket Bonanza

I am enjoying a great week--the weather has been fabulous, I'm not preparing for any shows so I actually have time to design some new products, and some terrific new prints have arrived in my studio. Today it was this delicious new personalized blanket for my shop in Michael Miller's Disco Dots. Oh, and have I mentioned how much I love taking pics with my new Nikon D3000? Things are really coming together here. My laptop has been acting funky but I have been backing everything up regularly, so my fingers are crossed.

Yesterday was also terrific because I started off the day with a lovely email from a happy customer who was emailing me to tell me how much she loved the dino princess dress that she had ordered for her daughter's dino birthday party. It was so nice to get that email because my two little ones both woke up in very cranky moods, so it felt great to know that someone out there was happy! I was walking my cranky almost-2-year old later that day and my phone rang. It turned out to be the owner of a shop that just received a package of my dresses and she was calling to tell me how thrilled she was with everything that I sent--yay! Indie Banditas on Bainbridge Island is now going to be carrying my dresses so I am eager to send them more one-of-a-kind dresses. A great day was wrapped up with one of my dearest friends sending me a message on my Facebook page that she had spotted one of my blankets at a playground in New York City and the owner had raved about how much she loved it. It's amazing how good feedback can make you feel...wahoo!
