Lou Week

This week - if all goes to plan - is going to be immense and I will be a happier, calmer person with a huge sense of achievement.

That's the plan!

I've taken the week off work and my toddler, Gracie, is still going to nursery 3 days and I am going to really strive to get a much made as is physically possible while occasionally popping out for coffee and charity shop raiding (which is all part of the process, I assure you).

So day 1 and Gracie slept late so I'm already an hour behind but well rested. Dropped her off at nursery and headed for Topsham. This is the coffee and charity shops bit!
But the most important job right now is list-making. I cannot function as a human being, let alone run my business, without multiple lists on the go, and if I hope to achieve anything this week I'll need a couple of lists to set me in the right direction.

So, I'll just finish my list and my coffee as it's nearly 10am and that's when the charity shops should be opening....

Week over

Well that week went quickly! Isn't it amazing how when you're doing something you love time goes so much faster than when you're data processing in an office?!
As predicted I didn't get nearly as much made as I wanted. I did get some sock kitties finished for my next craft fair. It's really important to have supplies of these as people seem to really like them and they're the product I'm known for. They just take so long to make!



The exciting part of the week was designing a new product - the Blue Bunny. I just can't help but make bunnies and I'm particularly pleased with these. I only have one finished at the moment but I'm going to focus my efforts on them and hope to make lots. As a happy side-effect of this plan it means a trip to ikea to buy more blankets to make them. Hooray!!
