March Update: Designing and Sewing!

It has been a crazy and extremely busy month for me! I have so much going on right now that it's been go! go! go! all month. My main focus lately besides my family has been getting my business up and running. I make custom gothic dresses, tops, and skirts. So far things have been amazingly successful for me. I'm trying to make as much stock as I can right now. My week is filled with designing and sewing. Those are two of my favourite things to do so life is good right now.

Unfortunately my hubby is having a rough time right now dealing with some injuries he acquired in a snowmobile accident. So while I am busier than ever at sewing he is forced to slow down and take it easy right now. This is a foreign concept to my dear husband. He's a Leo and likes to go full speed all the time. I'm just hoping that he is feeling better by the time the snow melts so he can ride his mountain bike again in the spring. He's only happy when he can ride his bike! I know he will heal completely with time and patience. 

Besides chauffeuring my family around, I am setting a few business goals to work on in the future. My first goal is to set up an etsy page to sell my designs online. So far I have been selling all my products at a friend's store called Black Orchid Designs. The store is chock full of gorgeous handmade alternative fashion. I am very lucky to have my designs in the store along with my very talented friend Kerri Mercer. I also have big plans for some new dresses and skirts for spring. There will be new items coming soon! 

Here are a few of my favourite things I made this month. You can find all my products on my Facebook page Mourning Glory Designs. Most of these tops have already been sold but I'm working on new ones now.
