Flutterby Gifts Blog http://flutterbygifts.com/blog The latest info on Flutterby Gifts Mon, 05 May 2008 00:57:42 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.2 en We’re moving! http://flutterbygifts.com/blog/2008/05/05/were-moving/ http://flutterbygifts.com/blog/2008/05/05/were-moving/#comments Mon, 05 May 2008 00:55:50 +0000 Sara Announcements http://flutterbygifts.com/blog/2008/05/05/were-moving/ For four years (nearly) I’ve lived and worked in the very hot state of Arizona. My sewing space, all of my soaping supplies and everything else I do has been left out in my work space.

In a month (June) we’re moving to Washington! For a little while we’ll be moving into a smaller place and I’m unsure when (or where) I’ll be able to set up my workspace again. All of my product supplies and fabrics will be in storage. That makes me very sad to be without all my crafts but that will only motivate me move faster and get back to my website and product creation.

The website has been changed to reflect the move. All pages that had products and prices have been removed for now. I’ve left the gallery, testimonials and a few other things up so people can get to know me still and hopefully want some of the products once we open back up again.

Wish us luck in this new move! Its going to take us about a week to get there and then the fun of unpacking starts.

Worn maybe 2 times. Colors still very bright. There is a slight mess up on the rainbow stitching but still very very cute and comfy! $10

Sun skirt. I love this skirt…I may keep it if no one else wants it. Up to 60in waist, elastic band. $15

I’ve amended that and now we have a new skirt gracing the website, a shamrock skirt. The front and back are awesome, soft off-white corduroy and the sides are fully lined patchwork green. There’s a small secret pocket on one side and the trim matches. It comes to mid calf (about 25in long) and is draw string waist band as all skirts are. Its machine washable and already pre shrunk. I’m very very happy with the look and plan on making a few more skirts in this style.   

I’m planning on a “Valentine’s Day” skirt in this same style in reds with a heart on front and maybe a blue one. We’ll see!  I’ve also done some editing to the site itself. A few pages have gone away in an effort to “clean house”. So the page of balms, massage oils and the apron, peace mat, and poncho have gone away. I will be more than willing to make these things for anyone still wanting them but they weren’t getting much traffic so in an effort to streamline a little bit I removed them.   

 

I’ve recently (finally!!!) finished a shirt that I really like. I want to get them on the site it’s just a matter of figuring out what size they should go by. As soon as I get that figured out I think they’ll be put on the site and be a big hit.
