Pattern Testers

I feel like I haven't been keeping you all informed lately like I should. I feel like I have been so busy, guess that's what happens during the summer! Anyway, I thought I would send a quick update about what's going on here.

First off, I have give my Oak Street bag pattern to 3 of the 4 testers. They are waiting for their fabric to arrive, but should get to testing next week. It was quite an exciting thing to get them bagged up and handed out. Of course, I am still figuring out all of the printing/packaging details, but they all got color copies and hand drawn pattern pieces (have to figure that out too). I'm excited! I've also made up a couple more bags these past few days. I will be posting another one to esty later today after I get some pictures of it.

Also, I am going to sit down and see if I can downsize the Oak Street bag a bit. I have a friend that may be able to sell my bags, but she would like something a little less expensive, and I had an idea this morning that if I downsized my current pattern, I could advertise and sell it with the full size pattern as an added value. I'm not sure if it will come out the same, or slightly different, but I'm hitting the drawing board in a few minutes, so we'll see what I come up with. Wonder with I will call that one, the Oak Street Mini?! :} Have a great weekend if I don't get back here I'm sewing like crazy!!!
