Pretty in Pink?



Well, today I had to pass up a chance to buy a vintage 1950s dinette set... which I really did love. However, I did not love that the upholstery was wrecked, and the price was so high, I wouldn't be able to foot the repair bill. So, the hunt continues, one garage sale and thrift shop at a time.
Then I somehow managed to slice my hand open while trying to repair a bar stool, of all things. I hadn't even got the tools out, yet! It's not really that bad, but my son nearly passed out at the sight...which was kinda scary. But he was a trooper, and was ready to bust out the first aid kit for me, despite his queeziness. He was very heroic! (Be prepared. Ya gotta love scouts.) Luckily, my husbands' mom came to our rescue, and now I have a pretty blue Peanuts bandaid, and I'm none the worse for wear. Thanks, Yvette!

Before all of that excitement, I did manage to eek out a few hours in the workshop. I've added a new fabric to my line. It has a very retro vibe, and I'm hoping shoppers will like it as much as I do! I'm always on the lookout for cute retro fabric designs that I can incorporate as "staples", if you will, in my shop.


What do you think... Should it stay, or should it go?
