Love and stuff

Hello friends!
I have been pretty productive lately and it excites me! I made two new clutches, only one of which will be featured in my shop. The other is a blackhawks clutch which I made for myself for the upcoming season! I want to get about five other clutches done by Monday.... ummmm not sure if that will happen.
See Monday my clutches will be featured in the showcase and I would love to have a larger line rather than the three I have now. I have all of them cut out, they just need to be sewn and photographed and uploaded. But I have a TON of homework that I need to get ahead with all the way until the end of October... yikes!
I am featuring a new line in my shop.... memory boxes!!! The wedding one is already up in my shop and I will soon have pet ones available, sports, personal, vacation, etc. I am very excited to be featuring these products!! I love to make them and they look great!!!
Quick entry today, just wanted to give you all a hello and lots of love!! I will keep you updated when I can!
Love, Jessica of Stitches and Spools

dmb AND mraz?!

I have two tickets for sale for the Dave Matthews Band concert tomorrow at Wrigley! The opening act is Jason Mraz (my favorite!) and I know it's gonna be an amazing time, I am so disappointed I can't go. :( Whoever gets these tickets will for sure have a good time! They are general admission in the floor section, so get there early enough and you can have front row! $250 for the pair! Dirt cheap for these tickets on the floor!

Fresh factor

Ah! I have finally caught up with myself (almost). I have been updating my facebook, I just updated my Etsy page with new featured items and a new shop announcement, posted to twitter a few times (I really do have to get better with the tweets), I FINALLY uploaded my pictures to flickr and ..... am I ambitious enough to update MYSPACE tonight as well???!
I am trying to give my shop a facelift. It is in much need of one. I want it to be fresh and I am debating changing my name. It would be so much work to change my name tho. On facebook, etsy, twitter, blogger, flickr, business cards, labels, etc etc! So we will see on that.
I am trying to promote my shop as much as possible because all profits I make from my Etsy shop, now until October 4, 2010 (one month!) I will be donating to my local humane society. I am already a member of the humane society of the US and now I am trying to support my local shelter because I have been visiting there frequently and they really are amazing people and it is a beautiful place for animals to stay until they find their forever home. Of course, I appreciate the fact that it is a no kill animals shelter as well. :)
I am participating in a walk to promote the shelter and therefore all money I make through my Etsy shop will be given to them, because they really deserve it.
If you would like to support me in my walk you can do so by visiting my fundraising page: http://www.firstgiving.com/jessicakarlsson
I would LOVE to be able to raise $250 for them by the time of my walk which is October 17, 2010. So please treat your pet (or yourself) to something in my shop and be treating other animals as well! It doesn't go unnoticed!!
Thanks for reading and I hope you all have an amazing labor day weekend! Relax! You're working too hard ;)
