Wow! You have a lot of things on your to-do list It looks like you are very busy.
ReplyDeleteI use to sew for the public for over 30 years and I found out it was good to ask for a deposit before I started making something for them. I told them it was for the materials and wasn't refundable. That way, if they didn't pick their item up, I wasn't out a lot of money. Sometimes it takes a while to sell the item so that really helps out. I wish you the best.
As I expected at the start of the post, you have been very busy, and will continue to be. Have a wonderful time in Phoenix - wish I were going to be there, too! On the other hand, I have no real reason to ever go back, unless you moved back there. Oh, well storage stuff, of course, but I'll do that sometime soon, as in the next couple years. LOL
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot going on and coming up. Hope you can get some rest on your vacation!!!
