Through the months of September to December, I was so busy that I was sewing from 10 to 12 hours a day. I was so thankful for all the special orders, I made 75 memory/keepsake teddy bears, they all turned out so cute. I will have to admit the hardest ones I made were the ones I made out of a wedding gown, There were a total of 9 of them, I embroidered a name on each one. It was a challenge but I guess I like a challenge once in a while.</em><br />
<em>Then there were the memory pillows, one lady ordered 12 for Christmas gifts, they were very special. Closer to Christmas I was getting several orders for personalized Christmas stockings, I always machine quilt the front of each stocking. With having all these special orders I still kept up with all the hemming and alterations and worked away from home 3 days a week. I am so thankful for everyone that trust me with doing their special memory items. It is always neat to see the look on their faces when they receive the finished product. I would like for everyone to visit and LIKE my facebook sewing page <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Cherylssewing/?fref=ts ">https://www.facebook.com/Cherylssewing/?fref=ts </a></em><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am so thankful for all the sewing projects that I get and all the new people that I get to meet. Most everyone is always so nice. I try to have a fast turn around on their sewing. I have even had people come to my house and wait for me to hem their jeans. I do try to please everyone, just had a gal come tonight to try on her bridesmaid dress, I loved seeing her face when she tried it on and it fit her perfect. I do sometimes hold my breath and hope everything works out. I really like the special orders that people place, and the Machine embroidery that I am learning how to do.</strong><br />
<strong>I have several projects that I am wanting to try, but I always put the customers first. Prom season was very busy for me this year, and I am now starting to get some weddings. Alterations on Wedding gowns can sometimes be very trying. So far they have all worked out great.</strong><br />
<strong>I know it seems like it is too early to think about Christmas, but now is the time to start placing your orders. Sometimes last minutes ones cannot be finished in time.</strong><br />

My sewing has picked up so much, getting new clients all the time. I do have a question, if I am this busy should I do more advertising, I have a chance to run an ad on the radio, sounds like a great deal, just not sure if I should spend the money when I am this busy. Any suggestions, I know I may not always be this busy.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="font-size: large;">I am really liking the warmer temps and the sun shine, it makes a person what to get so much more accomplished. Everything looks so pretty out the grass is so green, we did get the yard mowed yesterday before all of the rain showers.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="font-size: large;">Well this is a short blog but hope I will continue to keep it updated more often.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="font-size: large;">Better get back to some of my sewing projects, I have a wedding gown to do alterations on, need to make a little pillowcase dress, have pockets and collars to put on shirts, and alterations on a bridesmaid dress, that are just a few of the things I can think of right now.</span></em></strong><br />

They turned out so cute, I think that had to be at least over twenty years ago, and I know they still all have the bears and cherish them so much.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Over the years I have probably made over 300 bears, they have been made out of all kinds of fabrics, denim, old quilts, t-shirts, sweatshirts, chenille bedspreads, you name it I think I have made them. Each bear has it's own personality. I always use the buttons or tags on the items to add to the bears. There are never two that are just alike, that is what makes them so special. The last four that I just made are made out of old sweatshirts, I used designs from each shirt to make the bear come alive. When I first got the sweatshirts I told my husband I don't have much to work with, but I am so pleased at how they turned out.</span><br />

WORKING TWO JOBS IS TAKING UP SO MUCH OF MY TIME. I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE FIRST OF THE YEAR SO I CAN PARTIALLY RETIRE. THAT WILL GIVE ME SOME MORE TIME TO WORK ON SEWING PROJECTS AND KEEP UP WITH ALL THE ORDERS I AM GETTING FROM CUSTOMERS. ALSO IT WILL GIVE ME MORE TIME TO LEARN HOW TO RUN MY EMBROIDERY MACHINE. THERE IS SO MUCH THAT I DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT BUT WANT TO FIND OUT. MAYBE SOME CLASSES WILL BE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. I ALREADY HAVE SEVERAL ORDERS FOR CHRISTMAS, THANKS TO EVERYONE THAT GETS THEM IN EARLY. THAT SURE CUTS DOWN ON THE STRESS LEVEL FOR ME. SNAP PURSES ARE SOME OF THE THE PROJECTS I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON LATELY. THEY ARE FUN TO MAKE AND I LOVE TO BE ABLE TO PERSONALIZE THEM FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL.</span></em><br />

I REALLY DIDN'T KNOW IT WOULD TAKE SO LONG, AND COULDN'T HARDLY BELIEVE THAT I HAD SO MUCH FABRIC. IT WAS SOMETHING THAT I HAD TO TAKE SEVERAL BREAKS FROM DOING, I BEGIN TO THINK I WOULD NEVER GET IT ALL DONE. I TRIED TO KIND OF SORT THE FABRICS IN COLORS, PLAINS, REDS, BLACKS, NOVELTY AND SO ON. I FINALLY GOT IT ALL PUT BACK TOGETHER THIS AFTERNOON, IT LOOKS SO NICE, I JUST WISH IT WOULD STAY LIKE THAT FOREVER. I TOLD MY HUSBAND THERE SHOULD BE A LAW FOR HAVING SO MUCH FABRIC, AND HE LAUGHED AND SAID MAYBE THERE IS!!! I TOLD MY FRIENDS IF THEY SEE ME IN TOWN BUYING MORE FABRIC, PLEASE HAVE SOMEONE TAKE ME AWAY. I TOOK PICTURES TO SHOW WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE ALL CLEANED UP, AND ALL THE ITEMS HANGING ARE ITEMS THAT I HAVE MADE AND ARE FOR SALE. SEND ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS OVER TO MY BLOG, I ALWAYS LIKE GETTING NEW FOLLOWERS. SO HERE IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE AFTER I GOT EVERYTHING PUT BACK TOGETHER!</span></em><br />

<em><span style="font-size: large;">SOMETIME BACK MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW SENT ME A SITE THAT HAD A LITTLE GIRLS SKIRT MADE OUT OF BANDANA HANDKERCHIEFS. I HAD BEEN SO BUSY I HADN'T HAD TIME TO TRY IT OUT. LAST NIGHT AFTER I HAD WORKED OUTSIDE ALL DAY I THOUGHT I WOULD LIKE TO UNWIND, SO DECIDED TO SEE IF I COULD FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE THIS SKIRT. FIRST YOU FOLD THE HANDKERCHIEF IN QUARTERS, MEASURE DOWN ABOUT 2 1/2 INCHES, CUT THE TOP OFF, THEN CUT INTO FOUR PIECES. I USED TO HANDKERCHIEFS FOR THIS SKIRT. IT WAS REALLY PRETTY EASY. FOR THE WAISTBAND I USED AN OLD KNIT SHIRT! THAT WORKED PERFECT! IT TURNED OUT CUTE AND VERY INEXPENSIVE!</span></em>Cherylhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16069074952477454749noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1222200758162396027.post-12690941704868772912012-05-24T17:37:00.000-07:002012-05-24T17:37:21.114-07:00WEDDING RING PILLOW<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

NOW YOU WOULD THINK AS MUCH AS I SEW THAT MAKING A WEDDING RING PILLOW FOR A WEDDING WOULD BE SIMPLE. I GAVE UP ON IT LAST NIGHT, I JUST COULDN'T GET THE BAND TO GO AROUND IT THE WAY I WANTED TO. THAT IS ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT AFTER I GOT IN BED LAST NIGHT, WHAT WAS I DOING WRONG, WELL I CAME HOME FROM WORK TODAY AND IT SEEMED TO JUST GO TOGETHER PERFECT.

IT WAS SO PEACEFUL OUT, THAT IS WHAT I LIKE SO MUCH ABOUT COUNTRY LIVING. MOST OF THE TIME THINGS ARE NICE AROUND THIS AREA. HAD A COUPLE PEOPLE CALL ABOUT BRINGING SEWING SO THAT IS ALWAYS GOOD. </span></em><br />

<h2>
THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS I HAVE BEEN VERY BUSY WITH SEWING, I AM NOT COMPLAINING THAT IS WHAT I LOVE TO DO. I HOPE SOMEDAY I CAN QUIT MY DAY JOB AND STAY HOME AND SEW, THAT IS MY DREAM. PROM SEASON IS UPON US AND HAVE HAD SEVERAL DRESSES TO DO ALTERATIONS ON. I HAD A CALL FROM A GIRL THE OTHER DAY AND SHE SAID HER DRESS NEED HEMMED, AND THAT IT WAS A MERMAID STYLE DRESS. SO I THOUGHT THAT SHOULD BE FAIRLY EASY TO HEM. BOY WAS I WRONG, WHEN THEY CAME WITH THE DRESS I WAS VERY SURPRISED THAT IT WAS SO FULL, IN FACT IT WAS 24 FEET AROUND THE BOTTOM. THAT TOOK ME QUITE A WHILE TO GET AROUND IT. THAT WAS ONE PROJECT THAT I WAS SO GLAD TO GET FINISHED. I HAVE ALSO MADE LOTS OF LITTLE GIRLS PILLOWCASE DRESSES, THEY ALL TURN OUT SO CUTE AND I TRY NOT TO MAKE ANY TWO JUST ALIKE. I WANT THEM TO BE ONE OF A KIND DRESSES. ONE GOOD THING ABOUT THE PILLOWCASE DRESSES IS THAT WHEN THEY OUTGROWN THEM IN LENGTH THEY CAN STILL WEAR THEM AS TOPS. SO THEY ARE MONEY WELL SPENT. I AM ALWAYS TRYING TO COME UP WITH NEW SEWING IDEAS, SO JUST LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING YOU ARE WANTING MADE.

YESTERDAY I WORKED ALL DAY ON SEWING PROJECTS, HEMMED 5 PAIRS OF JEANS, PATCHED 2 PAIRS (PATCHING JEANS IS NOT SOMETHING I ADVERTISE TO DO) BUT SOMETIMES I DO THEM FOR FRIENDS. TOOK IN 5 TOPS FOR A LADY AND SHORTENED THE SLEEVES ON A BOYS SHIRT, WHEN I SAY SHORTENED THE SLEEVES I AM TALKING ABOUT A LONG SLEEVE SHIRT, THOSE ARE KIND OF HARD TO DO. I THINK GETTING THAT PLACKET BACK IN RIGHT IS ALWAYS HARD. IT'S DONE AND LOOKS GREAT, SO I CAN MARK ALL OF THOSE THINGS OFF OF MY TO DO LIST.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">TODAY I FIXED RUFFLES ON A BED SKIRT FOR A BABY BED, THAT WAS TIME CONSUMING ALSO.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">STILL HAVE SEVERAL THINGS TO GET DONE BUT SNOWY DAYS HELP. </span><br />

</tbody></table><em><span style="font-size: large;">I HAD A GOOD FRIEND MESSAGE ME THE OTHER DAY AND ASKED IF I COULD MAKE HER AN IOWA STATE TEDDY BEAR FOR CHRISTMAS. I SAID SURE, SO THAT IS WHAT I DONE WHEN I GOT HOME FROM MY OTHER JOB TODAY. THEY ARE SO MUCH FUN TO MAKE BECAUSE EACH ONE TURNS OUT DIFFERENT, THERE ARE NEVER TWO THAT LOOK JUST ALIKE. I WILL HAVE TO SAY THE HARDEST PART IS SEWING THE HEAD TO THE BODY, I ALWAYS ZIGZAG EACH PATTERN PIECE, THAT WAY THE FABRIC WON'T RAVEL, AND IT MAKES IT MUCH EASIER TO PUT TOGETHER. AFTER I GET ALL THE BODY PIECES SEWN TOGETHER, I PUT THE EYES ON THE BEAR, THEN I USE JOINTS TO PUT THE ARMS AND LEGS ON, THAT WAY THEY WILL MOVE, AND IT MAKES THEM EASIER TO SET UP. I THINK MY CUSTOMER WILL REALLY LIKE THE BEAR, IT TURNED OUT SO CUTE.</span></em>Cherylhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16069074952477454749noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1222200758162396027.post-38360383533271809202011-12-03T17:08:00.000-08:002011-12-03T17:08:07.650-08:00It's Beginning To Look Alot Like Christmas<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

ALTHOUGH IT WAS A GREAT DAY TO SLEEP IN (I LOVE DAYS LIKE THAT) I DECIDED I BETTER GET IN GEAR AND GET SOMETHING DONE. SO BEFORE NOON I HAD THE TWO SMALL TREES PUT UP AND DECORATED, THEY LOOK SO NICE. I AM THE TYPE WHEN I CHANGE SOMETHING AROUND I HAVE TO THOROUGHLY CLEAN EACH ROOM, BECAUSE I KNOW THAT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL EVERYTHING IS PUT AWAY. GOT LUNCH OVER AND CLEANED UP SO DECIDED I MIGHT AS WELL TACKLE THE BIG TREE, MY HUSBAND CARRIED IT UPSTAIRS FOR ME, THEN I DIDN'T SEE HIM AGAIN UNTIL I HAD IT ALL DONE. I LIKE ALL OF MY ORNAMENTS THAT I USE, SOME ARE FROM WHEN THE BOYS WERE LITTLE. I REMEMBER WHO GAVE SOME OF THEM TO ME, IT ALWAYS BRINGS BACK LOTS OF MEMORIES. THIS WAS A FUN DAY, I FEEL LIKE I GOT SO MUCH DONE.

</tbody></table><span style="font-size: large;">My day usually starts out around 6:30 in the morning, get up eat breakfast get ready to leave for my day job. I usually clean at least two houses each day. There are always lots of other things I do while I am in town, first off I had to mail two packages, these were special sewing orders. I am always anxious for them to arrive at their destination and hear from the people that have ordered them. I usually always have other sewing that I have done for people to drop off too. Then as soon as I get back home I am busy working on lots of special sewing orders. I now have 5 more aprons to make for a lady. These will make great Christmas gifts. Sewing is what I really like to do, someday I hope to be able to just stay at home and take sewing orders.

</tbody></table><span style="font-size: large;">I was very excited when I got an email from a friend that I used to go to school with wanting to order some Teddy Bears. This friend lives in Nebraska and has twin grandsons, these will make great Christmas presents. I started making teddy bears several years ago, I think the first ones I made were out of out cutter quilts. I remember selling several of them. I think another classmate told me a while back that she still had the one I had made for her. You can make teddy bears out of just about any type of fabric. I have made several out of old blue jeans and striped overalls. They were a big hit. Sometimes I call them keepsake teddy bears. To see all of my other items that I make and have for sale look me up of facebook under Cheryl's Sewing.</span>Cherylhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16069074952477454749noreply@blogger.com0
