today’s outfit and week 31

Posted on 09. Mar, 2010 by in outfit

I feel busier than I have in the last year. Why did I take on so many projects and responsibilities in the last few months? Oh yeah, because I am awesome and I can do it! (Self affirmations have been getting me through a lot lately.)

I’m in final negotiations to move into a new studio workshop. I have big plans for the space and I am excited to bring something to Omaha that our creative community really needs. When I get into this space I hope to hire an intern as soon as possible to begin helping me with fashion week projects, publicity, maintaining the store, assembling kits, etc. So keep that in the back of your mind if you know a young lady or gentleman who would be good at that. This workspace is awesome so cross your fingers that the negotiations work out!

I’ve been asked to contribute to a book and my studio photos and project are due in the next few weeks. What kind of project would you like to learn from me? What would make you buy this book? What in my studio do you want to see?

I committed to show five pieces at an Omaha Fashion Week runway preview show and charity fundraiser on March 31, so getting the accessories together right now is weighing on my mind. Click here if you’re interested in tickets for that.

And I have a lot of errands and chore-y things to do.
Gotta take care of some business with the IRS (joy).
Gotta open a new business account at my bank (glamorous).
Gotta get some quotes for insurance (blah).
Gotta finish bookkeeping for February (I actually enjoy that).
Gotta order tons of fabric.
Gotta pick models for the March 31 show.

And I have a lot of customer-y things to do.
Gotta figure out a few invoice issues.
Gotta finish photographing and listing new headbands in the PL store.
Gotta ship six kits and three bridal orders.

    I would love to see a stage by stage process to make a flower in the book, I would definitly buy it as I’ve messed about myself trying to make some flowers like yours. I love craft projects and sewing, I know you have the kits but sometimes just a guide in the book would be good as its nice to use scraps and bits and bobs you have left over from other projects and the flowers are idea sizes to do this. Your really ‘blooming’ and looking great with pregnancy by the way and if I wasn’t the other side of the world I’d love to be your assistant!

      ohhh meg I wish I loved it as much as you did.
      When I feel crappy I actually think of you and what a great mom you are. And all my friends who want kids and are having trouble.
      But I have to say that so far being pregnant is not my favorite state of being.

        i guess you don’t have quite as much room as i do. :)
        and then each baby i got wider….so it was easier…you are teeny.
        you’ll get through it.
        and honestly you will barely remember it.
        the best moment is the second the baby is out.
        there is no other relief felt in life like that. seriously it feels like you could conquer the world.
        so maybe you should have martha on speed dial right then…you’ll feel brave enough to try anything!

    I’m such a dork. I was going to buy a ticket to the VIP show because I thought that it was only $6.49. Hi. Larious.

    So excited for you though!

    In addition to the intern, would you be open to accepting a high school student that might want to learn a whole bunch? We might have a few budding designers at KBS that would love the experience. :)
