8 reviews later

Hi all.
I know I haven't been around much lately. I am admittedly addicted to etsy chat and all the lovely chatters there. A great big whoop! to me, I have 8 reviews so far and waiting for three more. I've only had 2 sales (the rest are trades), but I couldn't be any happier. I am now posting my etsy link on the right of my blog, take a peek for me everyone. And, I have some new items I've been dreaming up. I can't wait to get those on the machine and crank them out. Have a lovely night and a great week incase I don't make it back again.
umma

Saturday fundraiser fair

There's another fair coming up. Another chance for me to get some sales, sadly I haven't made anything new for it. My sewing machine broke on monday while finishing up an order. I missed the fix it men at my local quilt shop Wednesday and just got my machine fixed and returned home after 6 pm yesturday. The guys happily fixed/adjusted the tension in the shop for me yesterday. The price was 1 sewing needle. They didn't know if it was old, so they tossed it. It was perfectly new, but eh I'm just happy my machine is fixed. Needless to say, no sewing was done when I got home -I got side tracked again. To make up for my laziness, err lack of sewing (due to my broken machine) my goal for today is to

* Complete Photo trade order
*Mail off FFS tissue cozy
*Cut & prep 3 aprons -two for order on saturday.
*Sew 1 yellow pixie purse.
*List 3 new items in my etsy shop.

SYG cake winners


These crazy put together photos are pics of my table. I really need to get some manniquins (sP) and some display racks. Everyone was touching all over the things and they kept sliding around. So, my next investment has to be racks, insha'Allaah. Here are the other beautiful cakes below.

Wow, I have no idea who made this lovely cake or the story behind it but, it looks yummy.

Made by a sister that lives around the corner from me. Isn't it cute! You can find out how to make this cake yourself by going on youtube and looking up howdini train cakes.

This pillow cake was made by the daughter of my mothers friend. She used marzapin to form the letters and won 3rd place. Her peach cobblers are awesome. so I'm sure pretty sure this cake was delicious as well.
I believe this cake represents the mount of hudaybeeya? It came in 2nd place.

Last, but not least, this cutie has all handpipped roses. It's so cute. I think it was raffled off for $40-45. I hope whoever bought it enjoyed it.
Welp, that's all for today, insha'Allaah (God willing) I will be writing back again tomorrow. Here's what I'm listening to today. Enjoy!
