Here is how I run things: fabric and sewing table are set up in the dining room. In the morning after school run I have about two hours to get whatever I need doing done. I sit with my phone playing music or Netflix, lately it's been Downton Abbey. I cut, I iron, I sew, I flip, I sew again, I finish. And I do this in batches, usually about twenty at a time of whatever I'm working on. Once the littles are home from school I get them a snack and try to sneak in a few things, and after bedtime I ignore my husband and get another couple hours of work done. I wish I had a studio and time to go there, but for now it's pretty sweet to be able to get things done while being at home. Especially as my kids are so young and I get to take a break and play Candyland or build block towers...
I am currently busting ass to get things ready for Hovercraft. Whoop! Almost done. Then I can relax on Thanksgiving!
I have also somehow been trying to keep up with Toadstool Vintage. I have a ton of holiday dresses and goodies piled up from over the past year, I have to get it listed before it's too late! That gets done in the basement. I have two racks, one for listed items and one for items to be listed. I try to keep the listed rack more full than the not listed, but lately it's been a struggle! I go thrifting every week at least once, and I always come back with something! I could not bear to leave something cute at the store. That's just unheard of.
And now it's time to wrangle the littles again. It's amazing I ever get anything done, for real. Between a 3 year old climbing on me and a 5 year old trying so hard to help, it's a juggling act! One I'm lucky to have.
