WOYWW...

 Hi all.  It's been another busy week here for me at Sewing by Annie's.  I've had a steady flow of customers to keep me on my toes plus I have also made lots more for the charity.





I found some more Christmas fabrics in my stash so made 5 more little teddies....and these are selling well.





I made another batch of key rings that hold a £1 coin or a shopping trolley token....and have already sold 6 of them :-)




I had bought a box of pencils last year and not used them so I made some Christmas tree toppers for some.



I have also made three more gorgeous memory bears...made in memory of a much loved Mum using the outfit she had worn at her daughter's wedding.

It's all kept me busy as you can see :-)





The other thing I wanted to share, just in case it affects any of you, is that normally I use Microsoft Publisher for my Sewing business [and have done for years]...for my flyers and business cards etc.  Microsoft Publisher has now ceased so I shouted Michelle for help in setting up another way of designing/printing it all.  We had a wonderful morning yesterday redesigning and printing everything off.  We laughed til we cried...she really is like a tonic and I feel so blessed to have her....Thanks Shell, Love you lots.

Hugs,

Annie x

    Off to take DD to her hair appointment first thing, then knitting. all the memory bear stories tau at my heart. I love the trolley coin purses too - just so handy and adorable. Hubby does the shopping so I doubt he would use one but still, cute as can be!

  6. Love all the little Christmas bits, and also the bears made from the wedding outfit. It’s great to have a technology helper in the family-I am also missing Publisher! I need to get started to some Christmas makes soon. Catriona

  7. A week of teddies, not a bad way to stay busy Annie! I love that something that could have been a chore turned into you and Michelle having the best time, typical I’d say! Hope the new platform for your business stuff is easy!

  8. Hi Annie, you can't beat having a wonderful daughter! I know because I have one of my own. I can't believe MS Publisher is no more. I found it such a useful programme back in the days when I used it in my business. Loving all the little makes and glad to hear they are selling so well. The charity will no doubt be grateful for everything you do. Have a fab week. Hugs, Ellie x #10
