Hello.
Meet my friend’s son, Charlie. He is approximately 9-months-old. He’s super cute, loves to eat things, and {of course} is examining his mommy’s Gussy wallet.
Only babies can put Gussy products in their mouths. Sorry.
Charlie wants to open his mommy’s wallet and show her the inside. He thinks Gussy is so rad. He told me.
Speaking of Charlie’s mommy, look what Lindsay painted for me:
My very own personalized GUSSY artwork. It’s for my sewing room. LINDSAY IS THE COOLEST! This piece was painted with color suggestions only. And a bird. But that is it! She totally surprised me, totally made me fall in love with it at one glance.
Ahhh… I want to bring it everywhere I go. I love it.
Lindsay Girl — you rock!

Almost a month ago I emailed someone special and together we worked out a groovy deal. More details to come ;)
I had her pick some of my fabrics…
And then I sewed them into this gorgeous, GORGEOUS laptop bag:
I totally want it for myself. I LOVE IT! I’ve been super mega blessed to not have to fight with myself to give away my Gussy products. I think of the 200+ items I’ve made I’ve kept 3 things? Maybe 5? Five is the max! I love them all so much, and in order to “keep” them I just make more :)

OK! Gussy intercession. Some of you know I’ve been working out. This is week #2 for me. I’ve kicked up the length and intensity of my workouts and so far, so good :)
However, {sigh…} this morning I was a little crabby. I think using the word “grumpy” while writing a blog post the night before made me be Mrs. Grumpy in the morning.
Yes, that is my excuse.
I reallllllly didn’t want to get up to work out at 6:15 am, and so I stomped and huffed and puffed around our apartment. See? Gussy is a real person. Lindsay says it helped me to burn more calories. I think Hubbs has different opinion ;)

Time for more photos!!!
Here is a another custom order I finished recently. A diaper bag + travel diaper/wipe case for a mom-to-be:

OK, last story ;)
Yesterday I used some vacation hours and walked myself to the bus stop earlier than usual. I came home, opened all the windows, turned on some music, and scribbled off the following items from my to-do list:
-photograph diaper bag/wipe case custom order
-photograph Lindsay’s painting
-sew M’s laptop bag
-photograph M’s laptop bag
-sew a Shady Gus case
-repeat previous item
-work on a custom order for B
-oil my sewing machine
-go to the fabric store and purchase more materials for more custom orders {they end Nov. 14 — this Saturday!!!}
-package up 7 orders and bring to the Mailman.

YEOW! I love super productive days.

Good day.
