i had a wonderful day yesterday. when the studio is open and inviting sales, i meet lovely new people and i see wonderful friends who come and support my endeavors. it was such a perfectly pleasant day. sunny with a breeze off the lake. the yard, periodically filled with laughing kids. uncontrolled, real, from the gut laughing. the tire swings were busy. i was busy. lots of lemonade and shortbread. lots of long chats. and a successful and fantastic day. and i've decided i will be keeping the shop open while i'm working now, so people can come by anytime to pick something up.
i'm a little tired. and anxious to start the quilts that were ordered. and photographing napkins and tea towels to list on etsy. yesterday was a different sort of busy, today my regular busy starts again. just a walk along the lake with edgar and i'll be ready.
