Working It Out

Sometimes I find it hard to follow through with my goals. Not because I can't do them but because fear of failure sets in. And then some time later in my life I hear the words in my head "I should have....". It scares me because I want my design business to take off. I don't mean I want to be worldwide, I just want to do stuff locally for a while and think big later.

I wish I had more confidence in myself and could guide myself on the right path.

With my new goals I am going to push myself harder than I ever have before. I've been offered a phenomenal chance to be taught by a professional tailor and I know I can gain so much from it. I've decided I will contact him this week and see when we can arrange a time for my first lesson.

That will take a lot right the but I will do it.

Yeehaw!

So that dress in my last post? I have to make another in purple so that a young lady can wear it to her PROM!

That makes TWO sales for me.

Woohoo!

Uh huh uh huh!

GO ME!!!!!

In The Studio

I have been working on some fancy underwear for plus size girls. I love them. I wear them and they are not only gorgeous they are comfortable.

I am trying to work up the courage to put them on ETSY. I have a store there just have never posted anything because of fear I guess. I worry of failure. This sewing is MY thing and I do it well. But what if someone says something? It crushes me totally. I hate that I lack the self-confidence in myself and my talents. I am trying to get over it but it's a long process really.

On a good note though, I sold a dress earlier this week and I have someone coming on the weekend to try on the few I have here. Hope it goes well. They are for a semi formal.

Creating

This weekend was about creating for me. As per usual I spent Saturday with my princess (granddaughter) and we had fun! I gave her the box of jewelery I have been saving for her and she had a lot of fun with it.

I made her a Princess Wreath to go in her very pink, very girlie bedroom. And she loves it.

On Sunday I wasn't feeling very well so I laid in bed, watched movies and made jewelery for myself and maybe some to sell.

All in all, I completely enjoyed it!
