I MADE MY GOAL!!!

A year ago, I decided to set up a new and improved website AND ... crazy me ... start a blog.  And, I made a pledge write five days a week for the first year, to learn to blog and to get things going.

I'm really happy I did this, and I'm really exhausted from doing this. But, look at the results above! That is the graph I get on the phone app for my website provider, Weebly.  You can see how I started off with just a few visitors to my site daily, to spikes of over a thousand on several occasions!!


So, I am taking a break for about a week and for the second year I plan to post three days a week, M - W - F. 


I will endeavor to make really good and interesting blog installments.

I have several cool new patterns that will be issued soon.  I'm going to be teaching in October at the American Sewing Expo in Highland, Michigan in October and will lots to say about that.  Theresa LaQuey, my sister, has agreed to do some more guest blogging.  Her stuff is always so fun to see. I will also share my fabric and sewing observations for museum shows I see and wherever I might travel this year.


Please let me know if there are any topics you would like me to talk about.

Congratulations on successfully achieving your goal in relation to your lovely blog. I look forward to my visits as you move in to your second year.
I'm only a recent visitor to your blog, but have loved your tutorials and sewing tips in respect of the Frozen costumes you've made.
