busy week

Eeek!  Well that week just flew by.  Here's what I've been doing:

Such as it often is with my profession, last week started out quietly, then around Wednesday I got walloped by orders, inquiries, etc.  Definitely a good thing (July can sometimes be painfully slow), except that by Friday I had almost 100 pouches to sew zippers on and my zipper supplier forgot to ship my package I ordered over a week and a half before. Oops! They rushed me my package and I ended up finishing all of them yesterday.  Luckily it went a lot faster than I thought!

Since I haven't had time for much else lately other than cleaning and entertaining friends, I figured I'd share a somewhat recent project using this great Orla Kiley print I found at Hancock Fabrics (at least...I really hope it was licensed from her since I'll feel like a jerk if I'm buying a copy cat print).  It's so rare to find fabric prints that aren't cheesy at the bigger fabric stores.  Took me awhile to decide how to use it, but ultimately it ended up as a bathroom curtain.

Here's the finished product.  Not the best picture, but it's super hard to take a good shot of a single window with a thin fabric curtain (I need an overcast day I guess).  It looks much better in person.  I'm planning on replacing a bunch of stuff on the wall with an art print soon, so maybe I'll take some better "show and tell" pictures then. I love having that little pop of red in the house amongst all my favorite blues and greens!
