    AWESOME!!! I love love love that dress. Now just for the diet to kick in so I don't look like a whale in that dress.

    So I look on twitter for what I thought was fc's brand and find

    a lot of german
    a James Bond film
    even more physics stuff.

    Clearly I've got the name wrong :(

    .....finding a customer (with ready spends ) is the harder bit...didn't davesnave write a good one on this quoting from a plant lady he met years ago?

    2 pairs of necklaces and 2 sets of earrings in one day sounds a lot to me...pics pics...we want to see pics :D

    Yes he did. "Any silly b*gger can grow plants, it's selling them that takes real skill."

    We never forgot.

    The only modification I'd make now, would be to add "...and if you can't, then put the losses against tax till your pension comes through." :D

    What ad? I get confused with it all if I am honest....which is not good...and my language is wrong. DD does it better, all bad grammar and that.:D

    Which one...the coloured strappy leg? Love it too and the all black with sleeves is to die for...finished the pattern today.

    Some pics from my shoot are up on FB too...not all as we have to wait until they are nearly made.
    Miss K...I think we aren't going to do the big retailer thing cos I am too scaredy cat. :o

    oh, PN, places to sell, etsy.com (international) and folksy.com (UK based site for crafts).

    I've heard really good things about etsy.com and PN has all the skills to really make a mark on the site.

    That's not mine as I don't do Ebay..I just supply her... she is an amazing young woman up in Liverpool who set up a business from her bedroom and she has such flair.

    We got to meet for the 1st time at the clothes show (as have only had masses of e-mail chat) and she is going to go far I think. Very hardworking, at it 24/7 and only about age 23 I think. She has a small indie shop too but the online is her main income.

    The coloured strappy leg and also loving the puffy sleeve chiffon which may hide many many christmas sins. I thought I saw Ms Church with something that might be yours and I was right. You have a great distinctive style

    Well done on making a decision, now you can concentrate on making the original brand bigger and better etc :)

    I am very wired about the trade show we are doing mid Feb......I mean really really wired. We have to do it though as we need to lay claim to our look...and quickly. I know a lot of people showing though (from when I had the shop and was a buyer) so, hopefully it will go down OK. Loads to prep for it though.....like I really need more things to stress me out :p
