In the dash.
Between slipcovers. Life happens between the slipcover dashes. At this time of giving thanks, I pause to remember a few of those moments from 2015. Sometimes I am still creating: Making dinner napkins for a client's celebration of girlfriends. Stitching burlap panels display for a photographer's business launch. Designing 10 gallon drum coffee socks for a local organic coffee roaster. Assembling a high schooler's needle art art project into pillows. Finishing heirloom needlepoint pillows. Rescuing a client's wardrobe malfunction. Piecing a memories quilt for a NYC designer. Other times I am trying new things: Driving a Penske to High Point with a truckload of furniture. Scoping market with a home fashions comrade. Traveling to Italy for a fabric Reconnaissance. Touring with an Antiques Diva. Volunteering with Habitat for Humanity in Avery County, NC. Replacing my walking foot machine with a new monster Juki. Painting the kitchen cabinets white. The best of times I am with friends and family: Moving my daughter back to Raleigh. Weekending in Oriental to catch a glimpse of my sailing son. Celebrating birthdays with Fishy Business. Vintaging with Mama. Driving my mom & mother-in-law to cataract surgery. Chilling on Ocracoke Island with my muse. Attending a beach wedding of my daughter's childhood friend. Tailgating with the Wolfpack and my sisters. Square Dancing with friends from church. 2015 was a great year for the slipcover dash. I am grateful to God for all the between time. Yes life happens between the slipcover dashes. I love making slipcovers - but am most passionate about the dashes - and now I've got to dash - company's coming! Happy Thanksgiving!
