I DID IT!!!!!!

As of 12:30pm yesterday, I have reached my 500 sales goal for the year!!!!

And I still have 2 and a half months left in the year!!

WOOT!! WOOT!!!

***HAPPY DANCE TIME***

I will probably wait until the new year to set another goal.

Hmmm... What should it be? 600? 700?? Maybe 800??

In other news, Etsy is allowing you to change your shop name, only once. And after some thought I've decided to change my Etsy shop name. Don't worry it's nothing to drastic. I'm changing it to 72stitches, instead of seventytwostitches. I'm hoping that with this name change, it will be easier for people to find me, and remember me. We'll see how it goes!

Etsy Update...

I don't believe it!!! I received an email from one of my whole sale buyer and they wanted to make another order! And it's HUGE!!!! 73 items!!! I think I bit off more than I can chew. By the end of the weekend I will have completed 25 of the 73 items. I've been working on this order for about 2 weeks now. Wowwwie!

With that said, I will be able to reach my goal of 500 sales by the end of the year!! (As long as I can finish it before then!) I'm currently at 475 sales!!!! So far for the month of September I've sold 43 items! (13 of those items are for the wholesale order)

My Etsy shop has really taken off!!! I'm not sure if it's because I was featured in that magazine, or something else.

Either way, I'm not complaining! I'm so happy!!!!!

Reason why I haven't been blogging that much lately...

Yep, that's Chloe. She climbed up there all by herself and is picking through the trash. Oh, my!

She's getting into everything!

Etsy Update:

I'm up to 445 sales!

My new goal:

500 sales by December 31, 2011!

YIPPPPEEEE!!!!

I reached my 400 sales goal yesterday!!!!!

WOOT!!! WOOT!!!

New Goal: 450 sales by December 31, 2011.

Let's see if I can reach that goal!!!!

*happy dance*

:D

Halloween and Christmas in my Etsy Shop???

I'm trying to get ahead of the game this year. Last year, my shop was closed for the Christmas season, because I had a baby. So I want to be ready this year!

All of my Halloween items are in my shop. You can find them here:

And here is in Christmas collection:

I have a couple more Christmas items to make. A gingerbread man and a tiny snowman.

Other news!!!

I'm 2 sales away from 400!!!!

WOOT WOOT!!!!

Chloe 8 months old...well... more like 8 1/2 months old...

Here are some more pictures of Chloe! She is a very active little girl. Crawling all over the place, and even trying to pull herself up to stand! I have a feeling she will be walking soon!! Aaahhhh!!! There goes my crochet time. :(

Chloe is sleeping at night very well. Which is pretty awesome. She's even taking afternoon naps in her crib! Double awesome! I crochet while she naps.

She still doesn't have any teeth. I think she's more focused on getting around, and growing hair. But I think her teeth will come in soon.

Other news...

My Etsy shop is doing very well, considering I don't have a lot of time to work on it. I'm 3 sales away from 400!! Looks like I will have to make set another goal soon!

Chloe Update

Chloe is growing, and growing fast! She's all over the place! She still does the army crawl. She can't quite crawl on all fours yet. She can go from laying on the floor on her tummy to sitting on her bottom! Wow! My baby is growing up! She will be 8 months old in a couple of weeks!

She loves green beans, bananas, peaches, pears, applesauce, and carrots. She hates peas. We had to mix them with applesauce before she would eat them. Peas and applesauce?? Sounds gross to me.

Her new favorite toy is Mr. Grinch. She got the toy from my mom for Christmas. I thought she would be scared of it. But she absolutely loves him.

My Etsy shop is doing well. I'm 16 sales away from 400!! Yippee!! Looks like I will hit that goal before the end of the year! Swweeet!!
