Sew Expo Weekend

Yesterday, I wrote a little  blog post about Eileen's gift-giving philosophy.  I am a big fan of Eileen Roche, and it was a BIG DAY for her -- she and Marie were presenting their show for the Friday Night LIVE event in Puyallup.  However, I am worried that I hurt somebody's feelings...and I AM SO SORRY.  To the busy young Mom who received the chevron Parisian maxi dress -- I NEVER DREAMED YOU WOULD READ THIS BLOG. 

Yikes.

OF COURSE YOU ARE BUSY.....I completely understand that....and you do not owe me a thing.  You are a kind, generous person who helped a friend with a contribution to his moving fund.  YOU ARE WONDERFUL...and it took me months to get all the maxi dresses delivered....you didn't do anything wrong....

For Crying Out Loud, I write this blog EVERY DAMNED DAY...and sometimes -- who are we kidding??  I just talk out loud...it's like yada yada yada....blah, blah, blah....

HEY -- NOBODY EVER LISTENS TO ME!! 

On the one hand -- I am SO DELIGHTED THAT you read my blog, babe!!  But -- on the other hand -- OMG...I wanted to put up the pictures of the Mommy & me dresses...but doing that, then sharing Eileen's advice was never, ever meant to make you feel bad...

YOU ARE A WONDERFUL, warm, generous person (...I already said that...crap....)

Here it is -- the weekend for Sew Expo in Puyallup, Washington. And while ya'll are out there, having a wonderful time, enjoying the rain and the scones -- it was 20 degrees BELOW zero here in Iowa today.

YIKES...

Thanks for all your kind emails, text messages and phone calls this week.  I miss you, too!!  But I am sure you are having a wonderful time...

AND Connie and Laura -- I heard you did a great job for the Sewing Sisters last night!!  I could almost hear the laughter here in Iowa....
