It feels good

Amy Butler fabric tote bag with Michael Miller Damask lining
I thought I would be sewing all the time once I bought a house.  I would have much more space than I had when I was living at my mother’s house.  Well, it hasn’t actually gone that way.  You see, I had big dreams… I was going to make curtains, pillows, bags, etc. and I was going to sell them online!!!  YES!!!  I was going to be rich doing this because my curtains were going to be soooooo much cuter than the ones you find in stores or online.   THEN, I made some valances for a friend and while they came out nice, they took way longer than I thought they would.  That made me realize how expensive my curtains would have to be because they took so long to make.  That is where my dream died.
Fast forward a few months – after a conversation with a coworker my dream is starting to come back.  Why not just start small – VERY SMALL.  I can make a few things and put them up on etsy.  Why not?  If they sell then great and if not, that’s okay too. 
Check out the cute little tote bag I made tonight.  Its reversible!  I love both fabrics.  In fact, I also made a pillow cover out of the green fabric for my couch.
