Wednesday's Works

Besides caring for my sick Sophie and filling a few Etsy orders, I haven't been up to too much this past week.  I do, however, have a super exciting new custom order to tell you about!

~*~

A lovely customer in Vermont is moving to a new home.  She had a fantastic idea for her new space, and wrote to ask me what I thought.  I was all in from the beginning!

~*~

She shared the two paint colors she'll be using for the area in question.  The gray is called Pearl Gray from Sherwin Williams "Suburban Modern Restoration Line".  The yellow is from the same line, called Sunbeam Yellow. 

~*~

Below each you can see the yarn colors I found for her.  Gotta give myself props on this one- they look really good with the paint colors, don't you think?  The cotton is Red Heart Creme de la Creme- dark linen and golden yellow.

I am dying to get to work on this, but I had to order the yarn online.  So I am waiting.  Impatiently.

Now, it wouldn't be a Jennie post if I just flat out told you what the project is.  Let the guessing begin!!

Hmmmm....

One of my all time favorite things in the world is having a super friendly and enthusiastic new customer write to ask me if I can make something special for them. I always hold my breath a little as we go back and forth ironing out the details; then the challenge of creating something completely new to me sweeps me off my feet...and I kind of hyperventilate with joy!

I had such a happening this week with a wonderfully exuberant fellow Etsy seller from Cyprus. The large time difference and two different first languages didn't hold us back, we had such fun getting to know each other and deciding on fabrics.

I'm thrilled that the *shabby chic* look is not limited to my country or continent! This is a sneakity peekity of what I am making for the fabulous Maria. Can you guess what it is?

What Have We Here?

Here's a sneak peek at my new project! I have been having such fun making these, and as soon as I get my *description* down pat, I'll be listing them in the shop.

Can you guess what they are?
