Take your time and read-read-read each detail of the instructions.</div><div><br /></div><div>2. If there is a video tutorial available...find it. </div><div><br /></div><div>3. Do take the time to cut your interfacing smaller than the actual pieces (as they recommend). Little projects like this can become bulky very quickly on the corners. My corners are not that great and could be improved on, but I tried to save time by not cutting out my woven interfacing (SF101) from the pattern </div><div>pieces. </div><div><br /></div><div>4. Tiny projects should always be sewn in batches, especially if you are wanting to sell them. Otherwise you will not make enough per hour. These purses are going anywhere from $8.00 to 15.00 on Etsy. I would price mine around $12.00. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrKPFtbfDkgDmv6LG3KOIuA7OVERioN_rrL26JsOUnDRlMjaybt2AWn1JUGDUfTPI6JHRvHY_Lwk9MnwK4Km8HOY8M2gAD382TGKaHdwTxJ66mlZ6AbXOLpNGLFH-eCSoutmWnYxY7i8Zj/s1920/20200811_120232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1920" data-original-width="1440" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrKPFtbfDkgDmv6LG3KOIuA7OVERioN_rrL26JsOUnDRlMjaybt2AWn1JUGDUfTPI6JHRvHY_Lwk9MnwK4Km8HOY8M2gAD382TGKaHdwTxJ66mlZ6AbXOLpNGLFH-eCSoutmWnYxY7i8Zj/s640/20200811_120232.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMHS5alDmGcB3wzpg0EuwulaZ0cnl8z2MNO50dOYLaVIzfFEXuyAaMfm1rxWG5blFOGe6sbzAK6EV6cJHa_zr_soWGIIYKhfZpV8HSVijaKR9PZazbD5Ht98YgPeuZq-48G8ZC22gI7Y0_/s1920/Leopard+and+earbuds.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMHS5alDmGcB3wzpg0EuwulaZ0cnl8z2MNO50dOYLaVIzfFEXuyAaMfm1rxWG5blFOGe6sbzAK6EV6cJHa_zr_soWGIIYKhfZpV8HSVijaKR9PZazbD5Ht98YgPeuZq-48G8ZC22gI7Y0_/s640/Leopard+and+earbuds.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>So, in conclusion, I am already thinking about Christmas gifts for my daughter's friends using this little coin purse.

So, in October of 2019 I took a long needed break. I had lost all motivation to sew and to even look at my sewing room made me a little queasy. I was burned out! <div><br /></div><div>Thankfully, I had a new part time job working at a local college setting up science labs for students, as my degree is in Molecular/Cellular Biology. I really enjoyed being back to work after staying home for 13 years to raise our children. With our daughters being older and not needing me as much, I was actually excited to be back in the work force.
Over this past summer I suddenly felt excitement again to sew! I started taking custom purse orders again in May of this year and so far I am enjoying sewing again. The Lord always gives us what we need when we need it. A good thing too, because just a few weeks ago I learned that my part time job at the lab had been terminated, at least for the time being. So, back to sewing full throttle! You know, I am actually fine with that. I have a new-found energy and excitement, mainly because my customers are SO excited that I am open again. My customers are so amazing and supportive! They keep me going and I am so thankful for every single one them. </div><div><br /></div><div>If you are wanting to learn more about how to order one of my custom order concealed carry purses, stayed tuned.

<br /></div>
<div>
Recently I took on the adventure of sewing with waxed canvas. I have been dreaming of using waxed canvas for years! I always thought it was off limits to me, either because it would be too thick or the wax would ruin my machine....not true! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, lets start with the question of, "What is waxed canvas?"</div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>WHAT IS WAXED CANVAS?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Waxed canvas is what I used for this project. It is said that waxed canvas is one of the oldest materials in the world. People in Scotland began adding linseed oil to their clothing to make it water resistant. </div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>WHERE DID I PURCHASE MY WAXED CANVAS?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I had avoided waxed canvas for a long time because I had read so many articles saying it would gunk my machine and it is just a pain to work with. However, when I began researching again a few months ago, I camE across a waxed canvas fabric made by <a href="http://www.bigduckcanvas.com/waxed-canvas.html" target="_blank">Big Duck Canvas</a>. There are different weights of waxed canvas and I knew that I would need the lightest weight possible to be able to work with it on my Kenmore. Don't get me wrong, my Kenmore is AMAZING. I use it every day but Sunday, all year long. (It desperately needs a cleaning...poor thing). Anyway, Big Duck Canvas offers a 10.10 oz waxed canvas. The part that sold me was that Big Duck states on<a href="http://www.bigduckcanvas.com/waxed-canvas.html" target="_blank"> THIS</a> information page that it will "not gunk up your sewing machine". SOLD!! It also says it is non-toxic and non hazardous. Those are all great things. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>HOW DID IT SEW?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The more that you touch the waxed canvas and work with it, it becomes softer. When it arrives it is on a huge roll so that it will not crease before it reaches you. This is important because any little fold will leave a mark. I will talk about how to get rid of unwanted creases in a moment. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It really did sew beautifully. I did soon realize that I needed to use my walking foot attachment. The wax makes the fabric a little sticky, so the extra feet really do help move it along. You can see the difference in my stitches in the picture below. The stitches on the right were without the walking foot. I could tell my fabric was not wanting to move through the machine. I put on my walking foot and then achieved the results I was looking for (on left). Another option is using a Teflon foot. I actually did put on the Teflon foot when making the straps because the walking foot is just SO annoyingly bulky. </div>
<div>

<div>
<b>HOW DID I REMOVE UNWANTED CREASES?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is where I feel I can really help my readers. I read many tips on how to remove the unwanted creases in the waxed canvas. Everyone said that you could iron the creases out with a pressing cloth. So, that is what I tried first. The first thing I noticed was that the wax was really coming off on my pressing cloth. However, stupid me kept ironing. As I was making my purse I would continually iron to keep it all looking nice. I soon noticed that my fabric was looking very faded on the sections I was ironing a lot. I began to be concerned that I was removing a lot of the wax. Which I'm sure I was since I could visibly see it on my pressing cloth. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My advice to you....</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. Don't worry about the creases you are creating while you are working on your project. </div>
<div>
2. Finger press everything. The waxed canvas folds like a dream and stays in place, just like you would have ironed it. </div>
<div>
3. When you are finished with your project-USE A BLOW DRYER. The blow dryer worked wonderfully to remove any unwanted creases and just gave it a fresh look. With this method you are not even touching the fabric with heat and risking scorching or removing the wax. </div>
<div>

<br /></div>
<div>
<b>WHAT THREAD DID YOU USE?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I just used the thread I use for all my projects- 100% polyester Gutermann thread from JoAnn's. You could use a top stitching thread, but I would recommend using a regular thread in the bobbin. You might just want to experiment with what works best with your machine. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>WHAT SIZE OF NEEDLE DID YOU USE?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I just used a Jean Needle for this project and it worked fine. </div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>HOW MUCH DOES THE WAXED CANVAS COST?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Waxed canvas is pretty pricey, so you will really want to consider that before you begin your project. I am considering offering this as an option in my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/GCCginascraftcorner?ref=seller-platform-mcnav" target="_blank">Etsy Shop</a>, but I have to think about the pricing. My purses are already more expensive because they are concealed carry and custom order. Will my customers be willing to pay for a purse that is over $200? I believe there is a market for it, yes. So, the waxed canvas concealed carry purse is something I will be considering for the Fall of 2018. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I purchased the Waxed Army Duck Canvas in Chocolate. The price for a 60" wide, 1 yard fabric is $21.00. With shipping my total cost was $29.75. </div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>CAN I USE PINS ON WAXED CANVAS?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You do not want to use pins, as it will leave holes in your project. Like leather, you have to really try to avoid poking any holes in your fabric. That means, no mistakes. Well, that is pretty much impossible. There are always mistakes, right? I did have to rip out a few pieces after I had sewn them. I used the blow dryer to remove the holes as best I could and this worked pretty well. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I recommend using the clips below. Also, it should be noted that since the wax makes the fabric stickier it is pretty easy to get by without using pins. </div>

WHAT WAS THE HARDEST PART OF MAKING THIS PURSE?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The only part of this purse that I had anxiety about before I even began was the straps. I knew that my machine might have problems with my bulky straps. As I mentioned earlier, it was an issue. I was using my walking foot to sew my shoulder straps on, when all of a sudden it just was not stitching. It was really weird and I could not figure out why the top thread was not catching the bobbin thread. Anyway, I decided to put on the teflon foot and my troubles were over. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am considering using rivets next time instead, although I am not a big fan of rivets. It adds unnecessary cost to your bag, but in this case maybe it is necessary?? </div>

Thanks for stopping by! I really do hope this has helped you to take the plunge and give the waxed canvas fabric a try. This bag feels amazing! I really had a hard time parting with it. </div>

I wrapped up 2017 unveiling a brand new concealed carry purse to all of my customers. Have you seen it yet? If not, I'll share it with you now. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In the summer of 2017 I was eager to find another great purse to convert to a ccw purse. I had a few requirements.. 1. It needed to be easy to make in different sizes, 2. It needed to have lots of pockets, 3. I wanted to be able to add a crossbody strap and/or shoulder straps. I finally found the perfect purse from one of my favorite designers..Svetlana Sotak, the owner of <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/sotakhandmade" target="_blank">Sotak Handmade</a>. She has a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/483308958/vera-slouch-bag-instant-download-bag?ref=shop_home_active_19" target="_blank">Vera Slouch</a> purse that is just beautiful. The basic design was a great starting point for my new GCC Slouch Concealed Carry Purse. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I decided to make this purse in 3 sizes. It took some trial and error, but I finally came up with these three purse styles for my gun carrying customers. Let's take a look! ;)</div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>WHAT CHANGES DID I MAKE TO THE ORIGINAL DESIGN?</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Let's start with the size changes. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Vera Slouch is 11" wide x 11" tall x 4" deep. The measurements for my purses are as follows;</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
GCC Large Slouch Ambidextrous side draw: 13" wide x 11" tall x 5" deep</div>
<div>
GCC Medium Slouch Ambidextrous side draw: 12" wide x 10" tall x 4" deep</div>
<div>
GCC Mini Top Draw: ~ 9.5" wide x 8" tall x 3" deep</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A lot of the size change had to do with converting the back of the purse to a gun compartment. It needs to be long enough and tall enough to accommodate many gun sizes. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Secondly, after my first attempt at converting the Vera Slouch to a gun purse, I noticed some things about the design that I wanted to change. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
INNER FRONT POCKETS WITHIN A POCKET</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When I started carrying this purse, I had just gotten my very first smart phone. As I was carrying it around in the outer front pocket, as I think most people would do, I realized that it did not seem very secure. So, I decided to add strips of fabric that would allow me to slide my phone into a snug pocket inside the larger one. I absolutely love this feature! The pocket to the right of my phone is also great for my reading glasses, which seems to be a requirement for me now. (ugh!) The simple delights of being over 40. 😋</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ilg6xpSh8k4/Wle8mst9zhI/AAAAAAAAMMM/9avRKpmfFwQkvFn7PyafG8oJZVmEnRTzQCEwYBhgL/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ilg6xpSh8k4/Wle8mst9zhI/AAAAAAAAMMM/9avRKpmfFwQkvFn7PyafG8oJZVmEnRTzQCEwYBhgL/s320/2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I add this feature to the Large Slouch and Medium Slouch only, as the Mini has nice deep pockets. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
EYEGLASS POCKET</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Another issue I noticed while I was carrying around my new purse, was that my sunglasses often fall to the bottom of my purse. With my fair complexion and blue eyes, I wear my shades basically all day. So, I need them in easy reach. I cannot remember where I saw this brilliant design idea, but on one of my many Etsy searches while looking for new designs, I came across a purse that had a sewn in eyeglass case. "BOOM!" What a brilliant idea! It now is part of my Large Slouch Design. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VsGcpfW-i5U/Wle94lxw1HI/AAAAAAAAMM0/XvLeVUa4-486Lw7EsEkPFR-EPyU7ampNgCEwYBhgL/s1600/13.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1340" data-original-width="1600" height="333" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VsGcpfW-i5U/Wle94lxw1HI/AAAAAAAAMM0/XvLeVUa4-486Lw7EsEkPFR-EPyU7ampNgCEwYBhgL/s400/13.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
HANDLES</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My customers love the option of adding shoulder straps to my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/535909078/concealed-carry-purse-in-outdoor-fabric?ref=shop_home_active_14" target="_blank">GCC Convertible Concealed Carry Purse</a>. No matter what purse you decide to use, I think the best way to wear your purse is in a crossbody purse. This way your purse is always on you and you are less likely to set it down when out and about. However, I know some of you like the option to throw your purse over your shoulder, as do I. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For the Large Slouch, I soon realized that having "handles", not shoulder straps, would be a great option for this larger style. I did not have it on my original design, as it was not part of the Vera pattern. However, I absolutely LOVE the handles and could not live without them. Why? I just love being able to grab my purse quickly by the handles when I get out of the car. I also love to just have the purse hanging on my wrist if I'm just getting out for a second to go into the gas station. I also like to throw it over my shoulder once and a while. Now, the handles are short, so if you are a larger woman, or wearing a really bulky coat, it may not work over the shoulder. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
GUN COMPARTMENT</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The last, and obvious change, is the addition of a gun compartment on the back of the purse. The GCC Mini has a concealed top draw zipper gun pocket on the back and the Medium and Large Slouch purses both have concealed ambidextrous entry points. That means that if you draw right handed or left handed, it does not matter. I have zippers on both sides of the purse that lead into the separate gun compartment. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I think that is about it. I'm so happy you stopped by to read more about my purses. I'd love to hear your feedback. Do you have any sewing hacks to share with me? I'd love to read about them. </div>

I made an attempt a while back, but it was too huge. Funny enough, this one turns out to be too small! LOL<br />
<br />
In the past I have taken someone else's purse design and converted it into a gun bag. I often feel guilty hacking their purses like this, especially when some say I do not have to acknowledge them. So, I decided it was time to design my own to sell in my Etsy shop and at <a href="http://www.ginasconcealedcarry.com/">www.ginasconcealedcarry.com</a>. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
I have to admit, I would love to just design purses full time. I love the creative part of it. I'm always drawing in my little sketch book trying to design the perfect one-of-a-kind purse that no one else has ever seen before. (right-lol) I soon realized, early on, that I just did not have enough "know-how" to design my own purse. There are so many different techniques to learn when it comes to making purses. The reason I was finally able to make this purse on my own, was because I had finally made enough "different" purses and learned enough techniques, that I finally had enough of the puzzle to put a decent purse together on my own.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8_7Cccn27G0/V6yTK-1Db0I/AAAAAAAAG8c/P4nbbSnPkPghW7XSVIeyRQZjk5SA9_0iQCLcB/s1600/IMG_3815.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Gina's Concealed Carry Purse-Designing Adventure" border="0" height="480" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8_7Cccn27G0/V6yTK-1Db0I/AAAAAAAAG8c/P4nbbSnPkPghW7XSVIeyRQZjk5SA9_0iQCLcB/s640/IMG_3815.JPG" title="Gina's Concealed Carry Purse-Designing Adventure" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I often look at purses all over the internet for inspiration. I saw a little purse online that had a slanted pocket with a zip. It went all the way across, but I thought I would add a pocket for some more accessories. My customers have been asking for a smaller concealed carry purse, so I was trying to come up with something to fit their needs. This purse measures 9"W x 8.5"H. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JbFQ0Uv-C6I/V6yVjpUbx4I/AAAAAAAAG8o/5AujWBI_bhAJUPFcHtI-DS1knK8yJR_bQCLcB/s1600/IMG_3801.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Gina's Concealed Carry Purse-Designing Adventure" border="0" height="480" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JbFQ0Uv-C6I/V6yVjpUbx4I/AAAAAAAAG8o/5AujWBI_bhAJUPFcHtI-DS1knK8yJR_bQCLcB/s640/IMG_3801.JPG" title="Gina's Concealed Carry Purse-Designing Adventure" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
As soon as I finished this purse I measured the gun pocket and it only had room for a gun about 5.75" in length. It would fit the small guns, but most of my customers have a gun that measures 6" at least. I decided that I needed to try again and make the pocket at least 7" in height. I was not too sad because that meant I had a new cute purse! <br />
<br />
I did learn a few new techniques in making this purse. Would you believe I had never made a purse with a top zipper closure as pictured above. All the patterns I use usually have a recessed zipper, which I love. Another new things was putting in those strap loops. They would have been fine if I did not have to work around the gun pocket, but I just could not squeeze them in there very well with the measurements I was using. Well, it is not like I thought I would get this bag perfect the first time. (uh..yes I did-lol) <br />
<br />
I made this purse 2 more times and finally came up with what I think is cute gun purse! It is a little bigger and I changed a few things, but I am very happy with my new GCC "Casual Crossbody". If you want to see my new purse you can go to my facebook page to check it out! I'd love for you to hop on over and comment and join my community over there. ;)<br />

I just had to share this purse with you today. I know all my fellow fabric lovers will want to know what this fabric is called. It is <span style="background-color: white; color: #1b1c46; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Premier Prints Suzani Vine Twill Sherbet. The online fabric store, where I ordered the fabric from, says the background is light gray, but I would call it khaki. </span><br>

It took me a while to get on board with the locking zipper. Not because I don't think they are a good idea. I think they are a wonderful idea, especially if you are a mom or anyone who is around children. If you carry, you probably already know that there are some controversies over whether or not a locking zipper is a good idea or not. I leave the research and final decision up to you. Just know that at my shop you have either option. </div>

From a sewing perspective, I was nervous about the installation. However, it turned out to be pretty easy. All you need to buy are some zippers by the yard and then locate a company who sells locking pulls. In just a few seconds, (or hours if you you are putting the pull on wrong), you will have the lock on and then you can just sew like normal. Actually, I got the first one on really quick a month ago. Then, when I tried to get the other one on when I was making the purse, it took quite a bit of struggling from both me and my husband. Finally, my husband figured out that we were trying to get it on from the wrong side! Ugh! So, I think I'll make a quick tutorial if any of you are interested in ever changing out your pulls. It doesn't have to be a locking pull. Maybe you just want to add a fun handmade pull. </div>

This is also my first concealed carry purse made in black with gold hardware. I love the gold on black! Don't you? Very classy.</div>

I've also came up with a new slogan for my business. (Actually, my husband came up with it.) I often hear from my customers that they are so delighted that the pocket is truly concealed from view. Thus, the slogan..........Wait for it..............</div>

Another special feature about this purse is that the outside and inside are both outdoor fabric. That means, it has already been treated to resist stains and fading! Love that! </div>

<br />
It has been crazy busy around here since Christmas. Would you believe I'm still working on Christmas orders?! I know! I have come to realize that there is no way I can keep up with my orders without a little extra help now and then. So....that leads me to my announcement! <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/GCCginascraftcorner?ref=hdr_shop_menu" target="_blank">GCC</a> is hiring an extra set of hands to assist in the process. Well, if you count my wonderful husband, I now have 2 sets of extra hands. My husband helps keep the books all in order AND he even does a little cutting now and then (shhh...don't tell anyone). I never would have thought I would be so busy with my little purse business. The Lord has truly blessed me in this new endeavor and I'm so grateful! <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Some of you also know that my shop has been on vacation for a month in order to get a littlele caught up, which I've read recently is a big no-no! If you can't keep up, that means you need to hire help. So, that's where I'm at. I just reopened my Etsy shop, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/GCCginascraftcorner?ref=hdr_shop_menu" target="_blank">GCCginascraftcorner</a>, this morning!! I'm so excited because I really have missed the interaction with my customers. I love helping them pick out the perfect fabric for their CC purse. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Being able to pick out your own fabric is what sets my concealed carry purses apart from most on the market. That, and you know for sure my purses are made right here in the good ol' USA!<br />

One last announcement!! I will be adding <b>locking zippers</b> as an option add-on to my purses. Many of my customers have requested this option and I'm happy to provide it for them to give that extra security. <br />

<br />
<span face="" style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif;">It's easy to install the ink pod into the pen. Just snap in place and then slide the button to lock in place.</span><br />

<br />
<span face="" style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif;">Once the ink is in place, squeeze out the gel-like ink and press the black button to switch on the light. The light is SO powerful that it cures the ink instantly, thus the awesome towering sculptures. Okay, sculptures sounds a little fancy for what we created, but we impressed ourselves. </span><br />

I just thought I'd give my sewing machine a break to share some of my latest concealed carry handbags with you all! My closet is full of orders, but thankfully I only have 1 left that has to get out before Christmas. However, I am scheduled to complete at least 2 purses every week through the end of February, so I think I'll be ready for a LONG spring break come March. </div>

I'm sure you have heard about Small Business Saturday by now. It started around 2010 and has since took off! You've seen the commercials, right? Well, on days like today, when it is cold and rainy, I'll probably do most of my small business shopping on Etsy.com. Most, not all, but <i>mos</i>t of the companies on Etsy are small mom-and-pop type stores just trying to earn some extra income. <br>

I'm still in <i>SHOCK </i>that my Kansas City Royals, whom I've grown up cheering for all my life, are in the World Series for the second year in a row! For so many years we were always in last place. It almost seems that I'm in some sort of dream every time the announcers mention the Royals and the World Series in the same sentence. <br>
