First, I want to thank all of our service men and women for all they do and our Veterans for the sacrifices they have made. My dad was in the Army and both of my brothers retired from the Navy. The commitment these men and women make to their country never ceases to amaze me. My dad carried the burden of war with him his entire life. His nightmares were the most terrifying thing I can recall as a child. You can read about it here. Yes, their sacrifices are great.
Because of those awesome men and women....I have the day off today, and it couldn't have come at a better time. I can't even begin to tell you how many things I have made since spring that I have NOT listed in my shop. No....you have no idea. I have cake stands, and brooches, and wine bags, and pin cushions, and pillows, and coasters, and tote bags, and picture frames and I'm not even sure what else....and I'm not talking one or two of each, I am talking MANY of each.
The sun is supposed to shine all day today, which means I might be able to capture some well lit photos in the morning in my workshop window and then in the early afternoon in my kitchen window. I figure if I can get most of it photographed...then over the next couple of weeks I can touch up the photos and get things listed in time for the holidays. That is the plan. We will see how it goes.
I also have given a tremendous amount of thought to my etsy shop situation and have decided to keep FourDogDay and eventually close MyOtherShop. Your comments were very helpful and gave me much to think about.
I really don't have time to promote two shops, and now that I know that fabric is really my thing..I plan to concentrate on that. I will list all of my new items in FourDogDay and slowly move other fabric things over. I feel SO great having made my decision!
So, without further hesitation....I am out of here today! Glad I charged all of the batteries for the camera. I will need them!
Have an awesome day everyone!

I'll have to explore your Etsy shop! I heart Etsy.
And I second everything you said about Veterans Day and our servicemen. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Have a productive day, and congratulations on your big decision.
May dad and lots of people I know served. They should be proud.
Hope the day off finds you getting things done.
Bless all our sevice men and women serving and those who have served.
Hope your photos turn out great!
I am looking forward to seeing what you photograph today! Here in South Carolina it is pouring rain.
Here, here to all the veterans past and present...grateful that I can go outside and enjoy the sunshine on safe soil!
I know what you mean about trying to keep two shops going. Very difficult...one of them always gets put in the background! Hope the batteries held out today!
One shop will be fine! You can put all your love and energy into it.
