Lessons

Well this evening we had lesson two of our six week course. Pattern reading and taking measurements. Then adjusting patterns to fit. The time flew by!
I have been working hard for the last two months in the new shop, and the second hand clothing section is beginning to look good. Although people are still getting to know that I am there.
I have had over 280 alterations in to do. It's been non stop since I opened. I am thrilled with how well things are going. 

My New Logo

Finally my Logo is ready!

Update on the Shop!

It's been a very busy time working in my shop! From alterations, creations, and Pre-loved clothing to sewing workshops. 
It's been a very good start, I couldn't have asked for a better start.
I have not had a single day go by at work without alterations to do since day 1.
It's been amazing.
I am in the position now that I have taken on a part time help. Not with the sewing but with taking in the jobs, keeping the shop tidy, and stocked and handling the cash etc so that I can keep on sewing!

Cath Kidston Wallpaper

This weekend we used my two rolls of Cath Kidston Vintage Cars wall paper to pretty up the shop. I'm really pleased with the result.
The first week at the shop has been amazing. I really couldn't have asked for a better week. Long may it continue.
