Sew Beautiful accepts Design!

I am so excited that I have a design coming out this year in Sew Beautiful Magazine. After so many years of not having designs published, it was just one of those moments when you doubt yourself....I know I'm not the only person who has those moments. But with a little nudge from a smocking friend....Thanks Janet...I sent in photos of grand daughter Emma wearing a design and I have to say was pleasantly surprised with the quick answer from Sew Beautiful...."Yes, we want it." Well with that, I have two more submissions that I hope they find acceptable. Once I thought about it, I don't think I've ever had a design turned down. There are just so many talented designers that have such special things published, that I had that "doubting" moment. New Years Resolution No. 1 - Get to work!

YAY GWEN!!! I am so glad you joined the blogging world too! I am excited for you and so glad that SB is going to publish that darling design.

Hm....I guess I had better get some smocking on Ahnalin's Easter dress now.....

Welcome aboard! I just began my own blog for smocking related issues in the Fall. It is a fun way to network. I hope you don't mind but I linked your blog on my blog-

I love your plates especially the one in SB. My granddaughter loves Snow White, and I want to smock her Snow White so badly. Do you think you might design a plate with Snow White soon. I hope so. You would really make a 2 year old happy and her grandmother.
