It's odd. After all the angst about "finding my art" again, I've been hunkered down the last few days working on finishing pieces like a banshee. (Do banshees work? And if so, what do they work like???)
Most of my current projects are just last year's pieces I got "stuck" on. The solutions now seem ridiculously simple. It's like a single log worked loose in my logjam, and the water is flowing again.
Is it good stuff? I dunno. I like it. It's pulling together nicely. I have enough that I called my photographer to schedule another photo session.
My next big "biz" thing is to get my online wholesale catalog up and running, using Wholesalecrafts.com as my "host". I'm hoping once retailers see my work at the Buyers Market of American Craft and the new American Craft Retailers Expo, they'll feel perfectly comfortable placing orders online. Keeping up with a paper catalog has been mind-boggling--too many new designs popping up, and too many older designs being retired this year.
Oddly, I was interrupted today so many times, it took two hours to sit through one song on a new CD I bought. (I kept coming back to the studio and hitting "replay" again so I could hear the whole thing.) But even that didn't stop me.
I still wish I had time to master my new big quilting frame, so I could have a great big beautiful wall hanging in time for BMAC (three weeks! Where does the time go??!!)
This is the first night in a long time I've had to pull myself away from my work to go to bed. It feels wonderful.
