After a bare minimum of designing (read: uploading a screenshot of a couple of formatted cells in Google Sheets) and a $5 payment to Spoonflower, I now have some 50 custom labels to sew into my handmade garments this year.

I thought at first that I was biting off more than I could chew, but I really, REALLY wanted to sew most of my giftables this past Christmas.
I felt like I was figuring out zipper pouches pretty well, and who couldn’t use a pouch to keep stuff in? Pillowcases are a thing, too, and I’ve been getting better at appliqué, so there were lots of possibilities.
I made my husband a C64 zipper pouch for his birthday in November, and it turned out pretty awesome.

So I went for it. And it went well.
I kinda forgot that I can’t have brownies in the house.
Starting off 2019 right with a fraud alert on my main credit card. No, I did not spend $700 at Nike.com.

Here’s to the close of 2018; may the coming year bring us even closer to our friends and family.
Cheers!
